Legendarisk inspelning från 1953 av Puccinis "Tosca" med Maria Callas i en av rollerna.
...The chances of a perfect opera recording are pretty slim. There are so many human resources to marshal, there is so much music to record and, of course, there are those temperamental singers. But every now and then the miracle happens...
...Fifty years on, Callas's marvelous interpretation is still influential...
...What lifts it into the empyrean is the perfectionism of the conductor Victor de Sabata...
...This new remastering is streets ahead of the others; it irons out the sourness and surface noise of the original, without adding the implausible sheen and reverberance of previous transfers. To get such musical brilliance at Naxos's bargain price beats anything else that you might find in the sales...
