composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

This 1955 EMI recording of Le nozze di Figaro from the Glyndebourne Festival is deservedly a legendary account of the opera. Vittorio Gui's reading of the score is essentially conventional, in the best sense -- he avoids imposing interpretive eccentricities, and he allows the music and the drama to unfold naturally, while remaining constantly ...

composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Cut as it is -- and most of its recitatives are gone -- and as old as it is -- and it dates from the summer of 1955 -- this recording of Mozart's Le nozze di Figaro is nevertheless utterly delightful. Part of the reason is the conducting. Though Italian conductor Vittorio Gui never quite hit the international big time like his countrymen Cantelli ...

composed by Alban Berg

While baritone Tito Gobbi is known primarily for nineteenth century repertoire, his professional breakthrough came when he sang the Italian premiere of Wozzeck in Rome in 1942, in Italian. This CD preserves a performance of the opera from 1954, made with the Rome RAI Orchestra and Chorus. Conductor Nino Sanzogno obviously "gets" the opera -- his ...

composed by Igor Stravinsky

If this Gala reissue is your first exposure to Igor Stravinsky's neo-Classical opera The Rake's Progress (1951), postpone listening to it until you've heard a good contemporary recording or two. Stravinsky's first account, recorded at the opera's premiere in Venice on September 11, 1951, is somewhat faulty in performance and deficient in sound ...

Hughes Cuénod is, of this writing, still alive and kicking at age 102 in his native home of Vevey, Switzerland. The recordings featured on Fauré & Duparc: Mélodies were made in 1972, 1973, and 1978, and it is almost impossible to imagine that this is a singer who has achieved the advanced age of 70. There is no quaver in Cuénod's voice that is ...
