Vincenzo Bellini's operatic take on the Romeo and Juliet story, recorded in 1991 with conductor Bruno Campanella leading the La Fenice Orchestra and Chorus. This 1830 work showcases Bellini's gift for lyrical melody and emotional depth, with soprano Katia Ricciarelli bringing luminous grace to the role of Giulietta. The piece balances bel canto elegance with dramatic intensity, featuring soaring vocal lines, tender duets, and moments of genuine pathos. Bellini's orchestration supports rather than overwhelms the singers, creating an intimate yet grand sound. This recording captures the romantic fervor and melodic beauty that defined early 19th-century Italian opera.
