Listen to a Sample:

 

Pros:

  • Carol Neblett, in the relatively short role of the Queen of Sheba, manages to steal the show.
  • Spiro Malas strikes an impressive blend of comic timing and regal gravitas as King Dodon.
  • Enrico di Giuseppe had seemingly endless vocal range, making him ideal in the stratospherically high role of the Astrologer.
  • A young Ruth Welting sings the Golden Cockerel and left me feeling a bit cheated that the role didn't give her more of a chance to show off her unique brilliance.

Cons:

  • None to mention

BONUS:
Carol Neblett sings "Depuis le jour" from Louise

In Mono
