While best known today for having composed the ending to Puccini’s unfinished Turandot, Franco Alfano wrote some dozen operas, including Cyrano de Bergerac based on Edmond Rostand’s drama of the same name. Sung in French, with French and English subtitles, the opera is a moving tale of romantic misunderstanding, swashbuckling bravado and heartbreaking loyalty.
“Incredibly, Cyrano is [Domingo’s] 121st role. And it suits him splendidly… Soprano Sondra Radvanovsky was luminous as Roxane, her passionate outbursts showing off her powerful upper register to good effect.” Andante magazine on the leading pair’s performance at New York’s Metropolitan Opera.
