Graziella Sciutti - A Portrait (CD)
$12.95
A cherishable Mozart soprano of the 1950s and 60s, celebrated with the complete reissue of a Decca recital album. The quality that defined Graziella Sciutti as a singer was lightness – of voice, of bearing and presence on stage. Her vivacious intelligence was no less suited to the Rossini, Bellini and Donizetti roles which began what was remarkably her only operatic recital album, recorded by Decca in Vienna in 1961. There is Rosina (Il barbiere di Siviglia), which marked her debut at Glyndebourne in 1953 and Norina (Don Pasquale), which in Milan saw her unofficially crowned as the ‘Queen of the Piccola Scala’.
