Title: A Surprisingly Good Recording
Product review: I've never been a fan of "live" opera recordings--the sound quality is usually not very good, and the noises and coughs from the audience tends to come at inopportune times. I've also been burned a few times by purchasing recordings from Opera D'Oro--again the sound quality is usually pretty bad.That being said, I recently picked up this live recording of Macbeth, and I am pleasantly surprised. Ludwig is chilling as Lady Macbeth, and with Sherrill Milnes as Macbeth, what more could you ask for.This is one of the finest recordings of Macbeth I have heard, and far surpasses any studio recording I own. The sound is outstanding, the cast is impeccable. OK...there's no libretto, but look at the price!
