Apparently, great chances of success-take some good opera fragments and improvise on them. I think that with the exception of some improvisations on Bizet's Carmen it was never tried before. My problem with this music is that although I am a great opera lover and although I like some of Trovesi's work(even love some of his music) , this combination doesn't work with me. Maybe the approach is too avant-garde, maybe I expected something more like Loussier's approach, sorry it just doesn't work for me. I was tempted to rate it 2 stars because I don't like it, on the other hand I can't say it's no good, just not my cup of tea. So let it be 3 stars.
