Title: A Warm Performance
Review: While definately not Horne, Callas or Bumbry, this is a warm and enchanting take on a sometimes overly familier opera. Between a Veridan Carmen (Stignani) and Puccinian Don Jose (Gigli) not to mention that the whole thing is sung in Italian, we have something here that is probably very very different from what Bizet envisioned, but the sense of pure enjoyment in the performances jumps right out of the speakers. Look other places for a more "correct" performance of this opera; this one is for sheer enjoyment of a great story in song. Decent sound quality.
