Orfeo ed Euridice

- Default Title
Description
"Gardiner has much preferred the tautness of the original, Vienna version in Italian, which here on Philips he presents with a bite and sense of drama both totally in period and deeply expressive. The element of sensuousness, not least in the beautiful singing of the counter-tenor Derek Lee Ragin, in the title-role, complements the Elysian beauty Gardiner finds in such passages as the introduction to "Che puro ciel". Sylvia McNair as Euridice and Cyndia Sieden as Amor complete Gardiner's outstanding solo team." The Penguin Guide. Batch two of Decca's Opera Series, reissuing many of the greatest opera recordings of the last 50 years from Decca and Philips. This series re-establishes Decca as THE OPERA COMPANY. Original sleeve packaging. The complete libretto (offered in original language and translated into English, French, and German), is readable not only as PDF download but also via Amazon Kindle and the iPad.
