It became a dreamlike Italian concert evening for tens of thousands of enthusiastic visitors to the Berlin Waldbühne and for millions of viewers on TV screens. And for Jonas Kaufmann, another triumphant success in the unique career of the German classical superstar. After two and a half hours and standing ovations, the concert ended only after seven encores With the magnificent Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin and a stunning guest soloist, mezzo-soprano Anita Rachvelishvili, Jonas Kaufmann offered a concert full of beautiful melodies: an “Italian night” with highlights from the famous opera “Cavalleria Rusticana” by Mascagni, partly in duet with the stunning Anita Rachvelishvili, who is currently making a splash as the best “Carmen” in the world, with nostalgic Italian hits from “Voglio vivere così” to “Non ti scordar di me” and pop hits like “Caruso”. And all this in a dreamlike setting, the Berlin Waldbühne, under a constantly changing evening and night sky and on an atmospherically illuminated stage Now this unique “Italian Night”, a “Best of”-Jonas Kaufmann in the true sense, with numerous tracks that have not been available on CD before, is released as an album with the highlights of the evening as well as DVD and Blu-ray on Sony Classical. An ideal gift for the coming season, a must-have for all Kaufmann fans, a project for everyone who wants to enjoy the most popular classical music in the highest quality. |
