Remembering Tebaldi
Melody Moore, Transylvania State Philharmonic Orchestra, Lawrence Foster
IN LOVING MEMORY OF LA VOCE D'ANGELO
Melody Moore pays tribute to the legendary soprano Renata Tebaldi, presenting
a selection of arias and scenes by Rossini, Verdi, Boito, Catalani, Puccini, Mascagni, Giordano, Cilea and Alessandro Scarlatti, documenting the most
important stages in the career of "la voce d'angelo". Moore performs these pieces together with the Transylvania State Philharmonic Choir & Orchestra under the baton of Lawrence Foster.
Melody Moore and Lawrence Foster both have a vast Pentatone discography, including collective complete recordings of Verdi's Otello (2017) and
Puccini's Madama Butterfly and La Fanciulla del West (both 2021). The latter album was also the Pentatone debut of the Transylvania State Philharmonic Choir & Orchestra.

Does Moore sound like Tebaldi? Not exactly: a track-by-track comparison reveals subtle differences in timbre and interpretation. But this is an act of homage, not impersonation, and Tebaldi’s repertoire certainly suits Moore’s voice and showcases her versatility, as she differentiates each heroine from the next.
