Customer Reviews:

Oldie But Goodie.......2000-08-09

They have a sense of style and ensemble that is rare in today's jet age performances. It sounds like these singers had been performing together for a long time.

This may be the first recording of Aida and as a performance it can match or surpass anything done today. I did not give it five stars because of the dated sound, but once your ear gets accostomed to the generally constricted nature of the sound it is quite acceptable.The voices are the thing, and they come through quite well.
