William Tell is Rossini's last opera, and this Romantic heroic interpretation of Schiller's epic of Wilhelm Tell among his best works. Rossini composed this opera in Paris. The original libretto was written in French, for a French audience, chorus. Parisians by reputation had more refined musical technique and tastes than their Italian counterparts and Rossini applied the best of Italian opera technique, which he had mastered and more refined and complex French musical staging which he studied and adapted during his years in Paris.

All four of the principals are marvelous in this, Rossini's final opera. Milnes is a very convincing Tell in this performance and is in magnificent voice (even interpolating a stupendous High A in his aria "Resta Immobile"), turning in a heartfelt performance indeed. Pavarotti was still riding the crest of his glorious prime when this recording was made and could still be justifiably dubbed "King of the High C's". His Arnoldo is both beautifully and excitingly sung. "O Muto Asil" and "Corriam, Vorriam" will literally have the listener riveted. The High C's and C sharps Pavarotti pulls off here are absolutely breathtaking. One can easily understand why he dubbed this his finest studio recorded performance and what all the fuss was about concerning this great Tenor. Mirella Freni is a very beautifully sung youthful sounding Mathilde. Ghiaurov's Kessler is appropriately evil sounding and the great Bulgarian Bass is in excellent voice here, but I do agree with a previous reviewer who stated that it sounds as if they recorded Ghiaurov in another room. Chailly's conducting on this recording is simply put, flawless. The sound on the recording is wonderful. This is definitely THE recording to own if one wants to hear what REAL vocal pyro-techniques are all about. This is the finest recording of Guigliemo Tell this reviewer has ever had the priveledge to hear. This performance should be an absolute MUST for every operaphile's collection.
