I Puritani is the last great masterpiece of the exceptional Italian composer Vincenzo Bellini. The intelligently conceived and thoroughly thrilling historical drama, written by the Italian librettist Conte Carlo Pepoli (1796-1881), and the fiery romantic intrigue between Elvira, the daughter of a Puritan and the royalist Arturo, Bellini's rapturous music, full of melancholy intensity, is a delight to listen to, as performed by Lisette Oropesa and Lawrence Brownlee.
Experience Lisette Oropesa in one of her signature roles as Elvira, suffering from anguish of the soul to the point of madness.
Lawrence Brownlee (Arturo) has sung his way into the front row of international bel canto stars with several highly acclaimed performances, and he impressively demonstrates his skills as Arturo on this recording.
