5.0 out of 5 stars
The best Pecheurs de Perles ever done,
By
This review is from: Pearl Fishers (Audio CD)
This recording of Pecheurs is peerless. I had it on vinyl and so longed to hear it again I was almost forced to buy a turntable. Phooey! After wasting my money on all the other versions out there here at last Preiser Records has remastered the best ever. It is exquisite in every way. The singing by Mattiwilda Dobbs, Enzo Seri, Jean Borthayre and Lucien Mans is so so gorgeous. It is in the French style where notes are attacked on the mark and not slid in and out of as in the italien style. The voices are pure and spinto as needed for this opera and the passion is there fully. This delicate and gentle piece is sung and conducted so well. In addition although this is an old recording it sounds brand new! The depth of the orchestra and the voices are spread out completely from left to right and the depth of the auditorium comes through. It sounds live. Congratulations to Preiser Records for a great job. Highly recommended.

One of Leibowitz's finest opera recordings,

This review is from: Pearl Fishers (Audio CD)
This is indeed a most sensational account of this opera. The only negative is that some of the highs are bit distorted on the recording. Such huge tragedy Leibowitz was so rarely recorded.
