Juan Diego Flórez's second album, Una Furtiva Lagrima, follows the success of his debut album Rossini Arias, and will feature works by the other two great bel canto composers Bellini and Donizetti. While Rossini is loved largely for the virile acrobatics of his vocal writing, Bellini is popular for long, elegant melodies, and Donizetti for his use of Bel Canto style to achieve dramatic effect.
The new album includes well-loved Italian opera favourites, including the achingly beautiful title track “Una furtiva lagrima” from Donizetti's popular L'elisir d’amore, and the exuberant aria Ah!...Mes Amis... from Donizetti's La Fille du régiment with its famous series of 9 top Cs. This aria played a significant role in the career of Luciano Pavarotti and is seen as an important bench-mark for any tenor. Juan Diego Flórez regularly sings this aria in concert to great acclaim (and includes the complete role of Tonio in his stage repertoire).
