Title: Pick a different Simon!
Review: This recording was appallingly poorly done. Other reviewers are singing the opera's praises, with which I agree, but this recording specifically was impossible to listen to. There was so much noise on top of the actual music that I couldn't hear the opera. I fully regret my purchase, but would not foist it upon anyone else either. I was looking for something affordable to prepare to see the Metropolitan Opera Live in HD Broadcast with Placido Domingo in the title role, and I was sorely disappointed. Affordable does not always mean adequate!
