Awards and reviews

Christmas 2017

Often somewhat driven but always mercurial and dramatic, with a classic cast (women especially).
4 out of 5 stars

November 2017

There is, of course, plenty of zip from Solti in the pit…and he drives the score along well, with beefy playing from the RPO…Pease is a testy Don Giovanni…Simoneau is a good Ottavio, displaying honeyed head voice in ‘Dalla sua pace’…The sound is a bit rough and ready, as you’d expect from a live recording in the 1950s, with some dips in volume and occasional fuzz, but perfectly acceptable.
