$7.77



Listen to a Sample:

 

Pros:

  • Theo Adam brings his signature elegance and ease of tone to the title role.
  • As Donna Anna, Anna Tomowa-Sintow displays dramatic soprano heft without any of the edge.
  • Peter Schreier's Ottavio is both impeccably sung and heartbreaking.
  • Otmar Suitner takes a decidedly Romantic approach to the score, and shows a knack for breathing with the singers in a way that gives both the vocalism and expression of text a more natural feel.

Cons:

  • There is a hiss throughout the recording.
  • Kay Griffel's Donna Elvira is marred by the fact that she never really learned the part.
