Title: Wrong recording!
Review: The idea of an "operatic" recording of this work is a bit like that of a "rock" version of a Bach cantata: wrong, wrong, wrong. Get the Barbarossa (#01302-2) recording, conducted by Theodorakis, sung by Maria Farandouri and Heiner Vogt, recorded live in Berlin in 1980; THAT'S the way C.G. is supposed to sound: filled with passion and a sense of coming from the hearts of the people.
