Scene from: I Lombardi

Composer: Giuseppe Verdi
Conductor: Gianandrea Gavazzeni

The magnificent cast of I Lombardi, from La Scala, Milan, is headed by Ghena Dimitrova, José Carreras, Silvano Carroli and Carlo Bini. The haunting designs of Spartan grandeur are by Giovanni Agostinucci who uses the motif of a blood-red cross as a doubled edged symbol throughout the opera, which is set at the time of the First Crusade.

"José Carreras made an outstanding Oronte... with the kind of dramatic expressiveness that sets the tenor writing alight with romantic ardour."
THE TIMES.

Cast: Giselda - Ghena Dimitrova, Oronte - José Carreras, Pagano - Silvano Carroli, Arvino - Carlo Bini, Viclinda - Luisa Vannini.
