Mozart Le Nozze Di Figaro. London Symphony Orchestra Box Set 4 Vinyl LPs..


From 1982, the Critically Acclaimed Georg Solti 4-LP version of Mozart's most delightful opera: The Marriage of Figaro with a Near-Perfect Dream Cast anchored by the glorious singing of Te Kanawa, Popp, and Ramey. Solti commands ideal forces here in a swift, ebullient, effervescent version. Penguin Guide extols this recording admiring a "sparkling and radiant performance" capturing "the quintessential happiness of the entertainment." Penguin reviewers salute Te Kanawa above all, asserting her "ravishing tone, flawless phrasing, and elegant ornamentation throughout." All Too True! One of Mozart's greatest operatic masterworks communicated richly and in full by masterly vocal and instrumental performers. London Philharmonic wind players especially shine here! Even better, this is captured in Decca's digital Stereo. This is excellent buy Vinyl is VG+ to NM and the box is excellent. The booklet as slightly faded with age, but this doesn't deter from the overall quality of this box set.
