Beethoven: Symphony No 3; Schubert: Symphony No 9 (ICA Classics)

Cherubini: Medea (Pristine Audio)
Pristine’s revitalising of the sound here goes a long way towards countering any criticism of Callas’ sole studio recording of Medea [RMo]
Cherubini: Medea (RCA)

Cherubini: Medea (Pristine Audio)

Ten very well-filled discs documenting six glorious decades at the Paris Opera [RMo]
Josephine Barstow (soprano) Final Scenes (Decca)
For me, the two outer tracks alone make this anthology of final scenes compulsory [RMo]
