I det antika dramat spelade kören en viktig roll som berättare och kommentator. Hos Verdi har den en lika betydelsefull funktion i hans operor och har inspirerat honom till någon av hans bästa musik. Här har vi ett fint urval med ofta önskade favoriter som De hebreiska fångarnas kör ur Nebukadnessar, Smideskören ur Trubaduren, Eldskören ur Otello och Triumfmarschen ur Aida.



"The Naxos collection has an excellent modern digital recording. Moreover, the balance is natural, and the splendid Slovak Philharmonic Choir of Bratislava can still make a considerable impact without being given extra presence by the microphones. The Slovak Radio Symphony Orchestra provides an excellent back-up. Oliver Dohnányi is a first-rate Verdian. The chorus men are very eloquent indeed in "Sirideste il Leon di Castiglia" from Ernani and-again with a fine, rich brass introduction-the Macbeth chorus, "Patria oppressa", is movingly sung. I liked, too, the breadth of the Triumphal march from Aida, with splendid fanfare trumpets that seem to leap out of the speakers. ...it has plenty of triumphal spirit. Two splendid vintage excerpts from La battaglia di Legnano, "Deus meus" and "Giuramento", the latter with fine solo singing. All in all this is very enjoyable and excellent value. There is extensive documentation."
