Our Take

Italian pianist Francesco Nicolosi takes us on a whirlwind journey through the operatic worlds of Verdi, Rossini, and Bellini with his latest album, "Sigismond Thalberg: Fantasies On Operas By Verdi / Rossini And Bellini." And let me tell you, it's a rollercoaster of emotions, adrenaline, and pianistic prowess.

Nicolosi's interpretation of Thalberg's fantasies is nothing short of mesmerising. His technical chops are on full display as he effortlessly navigates the intricate passages and demanding virtuosic sections. From the haunting melodies of Verdi's "Il Trovatore" to the playful themes of Rossini's "Il Barbiere di Siviglia," Nicolosi brings each opera to life in a way that is both respectful of the original material and innovative in its execution.

But what truly sets Nicolosi apart is his ability to inject a sense of whimsy and joy into these often dramatic and intense operatic works. His playful phrasing and dynamic interpretation add a fresh and exciting twist to the familiar melodies, keeping the listener engaged and entertained from start to finish.

In a world where classical music can sometimes feel stuffy and inaccessible, Nicolosi's "Sigismond Thalberg" is a breath of fresh air. It's a reminder that music is meant to be enjoyed, experienced, and felt. So go ahead, treat yourself to this delightful album and let Nicolosi's infectious enthusiasm sweep you off your feet. Trust me, you won't regret it.
