Review title: Disappointed
Product review: I was incredibly disappointed with this recording and shocked to find so many boasting reviews for it! The singing on the whole is dreadful. Studer is wobbly, past her prime and the same is the case with Gallo. McNair is passable, but the voice is not particularly warm or pleasant as the cute maid Susanna. The only voices that are enjoyable are Bartoli's (never heard anything I didn't like from her!) who handles the trouser role of Cherubino with bravura, and Skovhus's beautifully resonant Count. The strongest part of this recording is Abaddo's masterful conducting. However, the unpleasantness of the leads' voices make this recording a chore to get through. I recommend the Levine or Bohm recording for some of the beautiful singing and meaningful characterization.
