Verdi

I have honestly never heard anything like this… [RMo]

An imaginative and involving production, but flawed by some intrusive and insensitive vulgarities [PCG]

Though Sir Geraint Evans is rather gruff and dry-toned, this lavishly cast recording is worth anyone’s money [GF]

Pristine’s typically successful remastering into Ambient Stereo helps appreciate afresh the virtues of this classic recording [RMo]

A striking new Rigoletto from the Royal Opera House, strongly cast and very well conducted [RWe]

Pristine illuminates afresh a vintage account of a perennial favourite, always very listenable but now even better [RMo]

One new Verdi discovery combined with some previously released material, all neatly performed [MP]

Recommended to all collectors of great 20th century conductors [GT]
