Title: Memento as well as excellent recording
Product review: I was fortunate (and old) enough to see pretty much this cast "live" at the Met, in one of the most spectacular opera performances I have experienced. I have the LPs, and played them often until we put away our vinyls for the CD era. I recently converted it to MP3 so I could listen on my iPod, and while the sonics are less impressive that way, it is still excellent.Melodramatic plot is putting it mildly, but the singers enter into the drama. The music is excellent. As other reviewers have stated, Marilyn Horne is not to be missed. The others aren't shabby either, especially when their suitability for their role and the situation of the moment is considered.It saddens me that this recording is not currently available.
