Listen to a Sample:

 

Pros:

  • Franco Bonisolli's Otello may lack nuance, but he more than makes up for it in searing intensity and glorious high notes.
  • Giuseppe Taddei's suave baritone makes for an excellent Iago.
  • Anna Alexieva does a very good job as Desdemona.

Cons:

  • The opening minute or so of each act is missing.
