The best Figaro on record!
Musickate | Chicago, IL USA | 07/27/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is a recording that ranks with the greatest. The sparkling, crisp overture and a remarkable cast, this is one for every classical music lover's library. Solti conducted with his usual unerring command, and you will never hear a better Countess or Figaro than Te Kanawa and Ramey. No one beats von Stade as Cherubino, and Thomas Allen and Lucia Popp as the Count and Susanna are wonderful. Obviously, I can't say enough good things about it. The recit's are stylistically correct, and not under- or over-done, and the arias all seem "right" in tempo, in feel, in motivation. I always feel that this is the realization/interpretation that Wolfgang would have loved.If you are looking for the best recording of Figaro, stop here!"
What a great CD!

"This is a dream cast, recorded for posterity. I've seen/heard many productions of Nozze, and have never heard it better."
