Wächter, Schwarzkopf, Sutherland, Sciutti, Alva, Taddei, Cappuccilli, Frick
Carlo Maria Giulini, Conductor / Philharmonia Orchestra & Chorus
From various reviews:
“This is one of a string of now classic opera recordings that were masterminded by the legendary record producer Walter Legge in the late 1950s and early 60s.”
“Giulini turns in a performance that’s beautifully, lovingly, wonderfully lyrical, yet at the same time always highly dramatic, and often very exciting.” “… sublime Mozart conducting.”
“There is no doubt that the orchestral playing here is unsurpassed … the Philharmonia under Giulini become a second cast on their own.” “The Philharmonia Orchestra is simply wonderful.”
“The cast is superb” “… some of the greatest singers of the 1950s in some of their greatest roles.”
“Schwarzkopf’ s Elvira, together with the orchestral playing, is the glory of this Don Giovanni.” “Elisabeth Schwarzkopf in her prime, combining sumptuous, radiant tone with fiery interpretation.”
“The young Joan Sutherland producing indescribably glorious sounds as Donna Anna.”
