Negative Positive
Title: A provisional recommendation
Review: I bought this CD set because I had enjoyed so much the LP recording of "Orpheus in the Underworld" I bought back in the seventies. I had assumed the other two operas would be as enjoyable, but they were a disappointment. However, the CDs are worth buying just for "Orpheus" - hilariously funny libretto, great melodies, and glorious singing from the Sadler's Wells cast. Just a pity that Offenbach seems to have run out of ideas when he wrote the other two.
Is the review positive or negative?
