Falstaff

Album by Giuseppe Verdi & Geraint Evans & Mirella Freni & Giulietta Simionato & Robert Merrill & Orchestra della RCA Italiana & Coro della RCA Italiana & Sir Georg Solti

Falstaff is the final opera by Italian composer Giuseppe Verdi, premiered in 1893. As a comic opera with a compact, through-composed structure and continuous musical flow, it employs intricate ensemble writing, sophisticated orchestration and late-Romantic harmonic techniques that mark a departure from Verdi's earlier grand operas and occupy a distinctive place in his late career.
