WATCH OUT!
Operísimo | San Francisco, California United States | 07/14/2007
(2 out of 5 stars)

"Not until your set is delivered will you realize that Act IV (the part with Elena) is missing!



URANIA should have announced this in the front cover, not only in the back cover, which was not showing on this site.



(See picture of the back cover that I uploaded)



Conductor VITTORIO GUI is excellent as usual.



Orchestra and Chorus from Opera di Roma are also first rate.



BORIS CHRISTOFF plays BORIS CHRISTOFF as usual, but as Mefistofele, he sounds even more exaggerated than usual.



GIACINTO PRANDELLI as Faust is excellent as usual.



ORIETTA MOSCUCI is the most awful Margherita I've ever heard.



PIERO DE PALMA as Wagner, and AMALIA PINI as Marta are very good.



Surprisingly enough, the sound of this studio recording is very good.
