Listen to a Sample:

 

Pros:

  • As if performances of Leonore weren't rare enough, this one has the added distinction of being in English.
  • Pauline Tinsley brings enormous heft to the title role, and relishes the coloratura passages which didn't make it into Beethoven's final cut.
  • Norman Bailey is excellent as Pizzaro as is Don Garrard as Rocco.
  • A young Robert Lloyd makes cameos as Don Fernando and the second prisoner.

Cons:

  • None to mention.
