Delos International and Dmitri Hvorostovsky invite you to feel the passion, fire and beauty of Verdi with this exciting second recording: VERDI ARIAS.

Following his recent stellar release DE 3290 Passione di Napoli, Hvorostovsky once again travels to Italy with the listener. VERDI ARIAS debuts in time to salute this remarkable baritone's upcoming Metropolitan Opera performances (in Don Carlos and War & Peace) and to celebrate his gripping, much-acclaimed Houston Grand Opera performance in Rigoletto.

Hvorostovsky possesses a rare blend of musical power and passion combined with an acute musical intelligence. World-renowned for his penetrating, artistic performances, Hvorostovsky moves effortlessly through the often-conflicting emotions which color Verdi's complex characters. This disc, devoted to Verdi fulfills a lifelong dream for Hvorostovsky. Working with Maestro Mario Bernardi and the Philharmonia of Russia, VERDI ARIAS was recorded in the Great Hall of Moscow's Tchaikovsky Conservatory, and belongs on every CD Player and every collection.

Tracks:

Otello: Vanne... la tua meta giˆ vedo... Credo in un Dio crudel Rigoletto: Pari siamo; Cortigiani, vil razza dannata
Stiffelio: Ei fugge!... Lina, pensai che un angelo... Oh gioia inesprimibile
Nabucco: Son pur queste mie membra?... Dio di Giuda!
Un Ballo in Maschera: Alla vita che t'arride; Alzati!... Eri tu
Ernani: Gran' Dio!... Oh de' verd'anni miei
I Masnadieri: Vecchio! Spiccai... La sua lampada vitale... Tremate, o miseri!; Sogno di Francesco: Tradimento!... Pareami, che sorto da lauto convito
Il Trovatore: Tutto deserto... Il balen del suo sorriso... Qual suono!... Per me ora fatale.
