Awards and reviews

2010 edition

the La Scala version of Falstaff in Naxos's historical series was the first ever made and is here superbly restored on CD by Ward Marston. Giacomo Rimini, with his firm, dark voice, not only articulates well but also conveys the humour of the fat knight...Aurora Baudes is a fruity Mrs Quickly with a formidable chest register
