Vincenzo Bellini LA SONNAMBULA "Ah! non credea mirarti" (Highlights)

Listen to Venera Gimadieva with "Ah! non credea mirarti" from Vincenzo Bellini´s LA SONNAMBULA.

Amina´s great sleepwalking scene of Amina at the end of Bellini's LA SONNAMBULA is one of the showpieces of belcanto-trained sopranos. In their production of Bellini's often ridiculed semi-seria, Jossi Wieler and Sergio Morabito show that there can be much more behind the ridiculed noctambulism motif than mere 19th century Biedermeier haunting: Traumatic experiences combine with Bellini's sweeping melody to reveal the music's deep, genuine feeling.
