Following the great success of his "Otello", Verdi was not expected to create another opera in his late years. Yet his friend, librettist and composer Arrigo Boito noticed how much Verdi missed composing and suggested working together on something new, an opera that could end his career on a higher note than "Otello", a "triumph with laughter”. At the age of almost 80, Verdi achieved another sensational success with his glorious Shakespearean comedy "Falstaff". Following five decades of tragic works, he created a masterpiece of comic opera. Although based on the same material as Nicolai’s "The Merry Wives of Windsor", Verdi succeeded in creating a version of the comedy which was as unconventional as it was enchanting.

ROMINA BOSCOLO IS MRS. QUICKLY IN FALSTAFF
INTERNATIONALE MAIFESTSPIELE - HESSISCHES STAATSTHEATER WIESBADEN
Enjoy this captivating performance of Romina Boscolo as Mrs. Quickly in Giuseppe Verdi's "Falstaff." Recorded during a recent production in Wiesbaden, Romina's rich, dark mezzo-soprano voice brings depth and character to the role. Praised for her impressive low tones and engaging stage presence, Romina masterfully guides Falstaff with a delightful mix of charm and cunning.

“Romina Boscolo, as Mrs. Quickly, gives another astonishing performance with magnificent low notes.”
— FRANKFURTER RUNDSCHAU

“Romina Boscolo as Mrs. Quickly deliciously makes a fool of Falstaff, her low notes are impressive.”
— HESSISCHER RUNDFUNK

“Romina Boscolo plays Mrs. Quickly with a lush, dark, organ-like alto that is a joy to hear.”
— DER OPERNFR
