Title: Gorgeous recording of "Lucia"
Review: Of course, when one thinks of the great "Lucias" of the past, one thinks of Callas, Sutherland, etc. If people were to hear this recording of "Lucia" with Anna Moffo in her prime, I'm sure many would include her in the same list of great "Lucias". Moffo's voice in this recording is marvelous to listen to. In addition to amazing musicianship, Moffo's voice demonstrates a velvety WARMTH OF TONE which never fails to move me. I simply don't hear this in some of the other recordings of "Lucia". (Listen to her recording of "Caro nome" from "Rigoletto" if you can find it and you'll immediately hear what I'm trying to describe.) The rest of the cast is simply superb. What a gorgeous recording of this gorgeous opera! Highly recommended.
