Offenbach

(Déjà Review) I defy anyone to play these tracks through once and not do so immediately again [ED]

Not for nothing has this Offenbach been counted among the five all-time great recordings of French opera [CH]

A valuable documentation of Delman’s versatility, musically, repertoire-wise and linguistically [GF]

RCA LPs restored, showing Elman schmoozing his way through Mozart and encore trinkets [JW]

(Déjà Review) 67 minutes of unalloyed joy [RJF]

A benchmark production of Offenbach’s opéra bouffe, subtle yet full of colour [RW]

A winner in almost every respect featuring a new edition with an entire Act of previously unperformed music [MP]

A splendid way to explore some of the composer’s lesser-known operettas [MC]
