Title: Please see the DGG version before you buy a Candide
Review: Please view Bernstein's DG version with the London Symphony Orchestra before you buy; one really can't beat Christa Ludwig, Nicolai Gedda and Adolph Green with Leonard himself and the LSO. Granted, the PBS version brought the work to a new audience, but the PBS staging is, regrettably, a slapstick comic-book style farce in which the characters are a bit overcooked (director's fault, not the cast's). I have three versions (including original cast recording) and prize the Bernstein version most highly. Do let me know what you think!
