CD Reviews

Amazing sound for an amazing opera

Eric Falardeau | Montreal, Quebec Canada | 11/22/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"When I slipped this SACD into my player, I had forgottent just how extraordinary this opera is. A true masterpiece that explodes with youthful enthousiasm... from a very old master! The intepretation (and the sound) remains fresh all through the three acts. I started with the intention of "byting" into it 20-30 minutes at a time... and I ended listening to it in one sitting!

Very, very good SACD (2 of them) and not expensive at all!"
