Virginia Zeani "Poveri Fiori" Adriana Lecouvreur

Virginia Zeani sings Adriana Lecouvreur in a live performance from Catania in 1977 conducted by Carlo Franci.
In Act IV Adriana opens a casket which contains the violets she had given only day before to her suitor Count Maurizio. They are dying and she thinks it is a token that his love for her has also died. But in fact they have been poisoned by Adriana's rival the Princess de Bouillon. Adriana and Maurizio are joyfully reconciled but too late, for the poison takes effect and Adriana dies in his arms.

To bodiloto. The key is correct (G minor) and the first note is G but it has come out slightly below concert pitch A440, probably due to repeated copying from an off air broadcast. It is certainly nowhere near a semitone down and there is no need for offensive comments.

[@bodiloto]

To Charlottein Weimar su questo video la tonalità e' abbassata di mezzo tono, e' un fatto. no, nessun problema in ogni caso sono un vecchio e della professione sono rimasto un po' sordo ... ahahahahahahahahahahahah ! cordialità il vecchio

THIS is how it should be sung! Sorry Gheorghiu and Netrebko, you should have learned before it was too late...

[@iloveopera1951]

Zeani loved and adored Gheorghiu and said multiple times that Gheorghiu is the only artist that vindicated her. Netrebko was never a good choice for Adriana Lecouvreur

[@bauchmann9971]

Cilea, the composer, wanted Magda Olivero for the role!!

mi ci hai portato tu...

[@operaforearthcorporation8922]

This is tuned down. It's not sung as written in the score.
