Listen to a Sample:

 

Pros:

  • The role of Faust was right in the sweet spot of Nicolai Gedda's honey-toned tenor.
  • The burnished elegance of Nicolai Ghiaurov's bass voice, gives this particular devil a non-negligible degree of sex appeal.
  • Heather Harper brings richness of tone and remarkable agility to the role of Marguerite.

Cons:

  • The sound is a bit muffled.

BONUS:
Nicolai Gedda Sings French Arias

In Mono

OD 11860-3
