CD Reviews

Don Giovanni, A Winning Highlights CD

W. Burton | NY & LA USA | 12/25/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This Highlights recording determined my purchasing the full length Mackerras version of the opera. I repeat the review posted there. Even though you'll have less of the opera with this, you will have one of the best highlights recordings available.

Extremely happy with this recording, particularly, the conducting, which is lively and sharp-witted. The ensemble of artists too, is one of cohesion and relationships. The quality of sound is rich and performances are so good, that for a while I thought I was listening to a live performance, which is my favorite way to hear an opera.

I don't think there is a perfect Don Giovanni, but this one comes close. There are no star-turns, no sanctimony, no hyper-reverential moments, just spirited Mozart, beautifully conducted and sung with great attention to character and story."
