{"product_id":"antonin-dvorak-rusalka-opera-in-3-acts","title":"Antonin Dvorak: Rusalka - Opera in 3 Acts","description":"Newly remastered: the legendary first complete recording of Dvorak's Rusalka \/ The first complete Czech studio recording of Rusalka (1952), presented here  in it's original remastered mono version, returns with a sensitive revival of it's  authentic sound, reaffirming it's special place in the history of Czech operatic  discography. Soprano Ludmila Cervinkova shines in the title role in  an interpretation combining lyrical tenderness with dramatic urgency,  an achievement that remains to this day among the pinnacles of Czech  operatic artistry. Alongside her are legends of the golden generation of  the Opera of the Prague National Theatre - Beno Blachut bringing ardent  passion to the part of the Prince, Eduard Haken in a deeply moving portrayal  of the Water Goblin, Marie Podvalova as the majestic Foreign Princess, and  Marta Krasova evocatively portraying the Witch. Jaroslav Krombholc leads  the Prague National Theatre Orchestra with exceptional sensitivity to Antonin  Dvorak's melodicism, colour, and the dramatic sweep of the work, creating  an interpretation that unites fairytale poetry with powerful dramatic intensity.  With it's famous aria 'Song to the Moon', Rusalka is today one of the most  frequently performed Czech operas around the world, and this historical  recording remains a treasure, documenting Czech operatic artistry  of the 20th century.","brand":"Supraphon","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":52517676941592,"sku":"099925438227","price":47.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/4346\/3192\/files\/4523826-3630095.jpg?v=1786707659","url":"https:\/\/hbdirect.com\/products\/antonin-dvorak-rusalka-opera-in-3-acts","provider":"HBDirect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
