Title: THE WORST SOUND EVER.
Product review: THE MUSIC IS BEAUTIFUL AND THE SINGERS DO THEIR JOB. ZAMBON IS ACTUALLY VERY GOOD. LUISA MARAGLIANO MADE ME RUN FOR MY OLVERO RECORDINGS TO WASH HER SCREAMING OFF MY EARS. ONE MUST ALSO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THIS IS THE ONLY AVAILABLE RECORDING OF THIS OPERA, A LIVE TAKE FROM 1974. ALAS, IT HAS THE (IN)FAMOUS GALA SOUND, THAT IS, IT SOUNDS AF IF RECORDED THROUGH A BOX, REALLY INTOLERABLE. ADD TO THAT THE LACK OF NOTES OR LIBRETTO, WHICH I WOULD NOT MIND IF AT LEAST I COULD UNDERSTAND WHAT IS BEING SUNG (I KNOW ITALIAN). SO, AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
