Description:

Les Pêcheurs de perles is best known for it's glorious duet, but Georges Bizet's opera has much more to offer. This live recording more than ever brings out the brilliance of this oriental story about love, duty and friendship. In the last 150 years, Bizet's piece has mainly been heard in editions that stray from the composer's original composition. This album - on the contrary - offers the first recording in history of the 1863 premiere version, reconstructed and published by Barenreiter in 2015. Les Pêcheurs de perles contains a quintessentially French blend of lyricism, exoticism and drama, and the four soloists (Julie Fuchs as Leïla, Cyrille Dubois as Nadir, Florian Sempey as Zurga and Luc Bertin-Hugault as Nourabad) belong to today's best performers for this specialist repertoire. Their vocal excellence is matched by the choral contributions of Les Cris de Paris. The rich sound palette of Les Pêcheurs is fully brought to life by the inspired playing of the Orchestre National de Lille under the baton of it's new Music Director Alexandre Bloch.

Live Recording of 1863 première version, Alkor-Edition Bärenreiter, 2015. Recorded at the Nouveau Siècle de Lille, 9-11 May 2017. Julie Fuchs appears courtesy of Decca Records France. 2 SACD set each slipped in carded wallet in a cardboard box. 28 page booklet with photos and information in English and French.
