Caballé, Bacquier, Berton, Blankenburg, Steffek; Pritchard
Lausanne, 1964
$14.95
Description:
The highlight of this performance, captured in pristine sound, is the Countess as portrayed by a young Montserrat Caballé. While her voice may not be the most quintessentially Mozartian, she makes the role uniquely her own, showcasing her impeccable technique and innate sense of style. Gabriel Bacquier, one of the rare baritones capable of seamlessly alternating between the roles of the Count and Figaro, takes on the title role here. His portrayal fits the role beautifully, delivering an everyman elegance to the part. John Pritchard lends his signature class and refined taste to the orchestra, cast, and chorus.
