Gaetano Donizetti’s L’elisir d’amore, first performed in 1832, is one of the most charming and beloved works in the Italian bel canto repertoire. Combining graceful melodies with light-hearted humour, the opera tells a simple yet touching story of love, innocence, and self-discovery, and continues to delight audiences with its warmth and wit.

The shy and naïve Nemorino is deeply in love with the wealthy and independent Adina, but struggles to win her heart. Believing in the power of a magical love potion sold by the quack doctor Dulcamara, Nemorino places his hopes in the elixir, only to discover that true love cannot be bought. Featuring sparkling ensembles and the famous aria "Una furtiva lagrima", the opera perfectly showcases Donizetti's gift for lyrical expression and comic timing.

This month's classic recording features soprano Joan Sutherland as Adina, tenor Luciano Pavarotti as Nemorino, baritone Dominic Cossa as Belcore, and bass Spiro Malas as Dulcamara, with the Ambrosian Opera Chorus and the English Chamber Orchestra conducted by Richard Bonynge.

多尼采蒂的歌剧《爱情灵药》于1832年首演，是意大利美声歌剧中最具魅力且历久不衰的经典作品之一。作品以优雅动人的旋律结合轻松幽默的情节，讲述一个关于爱情、纯真与成长的故事，至今仍深受世界各地观众喜爱。

性格单纯的 Nemorino 深深爱上了独立的富家女 Adina，却始终无法赢得她的芳心。在江湖术士 Dulcamara 所贩卖的「爱情灵药」诱惑下，Nemorino 将希望寄托于这瓶灵药，最终却明白真正的爱情并非金钱所能换取。剧中轻快活泼的重唱及著名咏叹调「偷洒一滴泪」，充分展现多尼采蒂优美的旋律才华与精湛的喜歌剧创作技巧。
