Query: A Very Disappointing Version of Verdi's Masterpiece

Falstaff is definitely Verdi's most astonishing masterpiece: it is extremely dense, overloaded with themes, and its music is incredibly inspired. What Maestro Giulini and his team deliver is NOT Falstaff. The tempo is unbearably slow; it sounds like Bruckner or Brahms! Bruson's capture of the role is much too heavy, and yet his voice is not impressive. Ricciarelli does not fit the role at all; it requires her to be very agile, which she is not in this recording. If you want to discover the real Falstaff, refer to Karajan's version with a great collection of artists: Tito Gobbi (unforgettable), Elizabeth Schwarzkopf, Feodora Barbieri... It is one of the best recording of an opera (ever)
