CD1956400 Nino Rota - IL CAPPELLO DI PAGLIA DI FIRENZE, Teatro di San Carlo, Napoli, 13 May 2018
Opera Matinee: Nino Rota's The Italian Straw Hat Afternoon Concert, Radio BBC3, May16, 2019
This afternoon sees 'Godfather' composer Nino Rota in lighter vein with a delightful comic opera recorded last year at the Teatro di San Carlo in Naples. Rota composed this opera, one of ten, in 1945 but it was not produced until ten years later - it's gone on in Italy to be one of best-loved of 20th century operas
Set in a madcap Paris, Il Cappello di Paglia di Firenze (usually translated as "The Italian Straw Hat") has been described as an extended chase sequence: groom-to-be Fadinard chases around Paris on the day of his wedding day desperately searching for a replacement straw hat after his horse has eaten his. This being an Italian opera buffa, the plot becomes ever more absurd as misunderstandings and mishaps inevitably accrue.
Presented by Penny Gore

Nino Rota composed this opera in 1945 but it was put on scene only ten years later. Set in the magic atmosphere of Paris, Il Cappello di Paglia di Firenze (The Straw Hat of Florence) is based on a paradoxical and colossal misunderstanding. Rota’s masterpiece is a condensate of lightness and music genius; a score where the author has fun by citing (even himself!) as he was used to do also in his soundtracks celebrated by Fellini’s movies.

We sell only opera recordings. The recordings are sent to you in paper sleeves with no tray card or inserts, just the raw discs with printed labels. These recordings are of nonprofessional quality that are in the public domain. The quality of these old opera recordings is not very good and they are meant for collectors and educational purposes only. Most of them are 30 or 40 years old, so they might be blurry, colors faded, and not sound very good, but they might not be available elsewhere. Please note that most of our recordings do not have tracks, they have 1 long track per disc.
