Tutto Buffo, Paolo Bordogna’s debut solo release on Decca, is a generous collection of comic bass-baritone arias by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Gioachino Rossini, Gaetano Donizetti, Giuseppe Verdi, Giacomo Puccini, Pietro Mascagni, and Nino Rota. Accompanied by the Filarmonica Arturo Toscanini under Francesco Lanzillotta, Bordogna gives an engaging recital that emphasizes the exceptional vocal skills required to make these roles truly musical and not just parts played for laughs. Bordogna’s voice is nuanced and adaptable for his characterizations, and he shifts with apparent ease from the robust baritone of Mozart’s Leporello to the deep bass of Rossini’s Dr. Bartolo, creating completely different personalities through his vocal qualities and timbres. Bordogna’s charisma and comic delivery have undoubtedly contributed much to his success, but the richness and flexibility of his voice assure him a bright future in buffo roles.
