Description: 2 Set CD from the Opera Collection. 1 CD and 1 Enhanced CD for computer. The slim booklet has a track-by-track synopsis; the text is embedded in the first of the two discs and accessed via your computer. Notwithstanding a starry cast, this brightly lit reissue is Solti’s show, shared with a Vienna Philharmonic at the top of its form. His is a weighty, Straussian performance that takes seriously a work often relegated to the “children’s opera” category. Which is to say that while rival versions may offer more charm, often to the work’s detriment, Solti revels in its multitude of orchestral colors, aided by engineering that vividly reproduces the orchestral contributions so the deep brass ring out with authority and the strings, especially the warm cellos, sing with both delicacy and strength. My rating of "near mint" generally means spotless. I refuse to rate any open product as "mint." Domestic Shipping: 1-3 CDs $4.88. 4-7 CDs $5.63, 8-more based on the weight. Place all items from my store in one cart. Use "add to cart", not "buy it now". Then request combined total. If you make an offer don't pay until we agree on a price. Outside the US: I use the Global Shipping Program; I will ship to Global Shipping Center.
