Listen to a Sample:

Pros:

  • This performance of Un Ballo in maschera gets as close to perfection as you can get with Verdi.
  • A young José Carreras offers flawless lyricism as Riccardo; acquitting even the most technically demanding sections with power and ease.
  • Montserrat Caballé ability to unleash hair-raising fortes and then turn on a dime to float a stunning pianissimo high note makes for an Amelia that probably only comes around once in a lifetime (if that.)
  • Renato Bruson brings finesse and passion to the role of Renato.

Cons:

  • None to mention.
