Listen to a Sample:
Pros:
- Astrid Varnay would go on to make her mark in the world of Wagner and Strauss, but she shows in these performances from Mexico City (recorded when she was only 30) that she could have easily become one of the preeminent exponents of Italian opera. She brings an ease of production, impeccable style and her signature dramatic abandon to each of these roles.
- The excerpts from La Gioconda and Otello have never before been available. To fill out the rest of the CD, I have included excerpts from Il Trovatore from a complete performance in our catalogue (click here to view)
Cons:
- None to mention.
