“Runnicles is a deeply sympathetic conductor inspiring an outstanding cast with no weak link. Kirk te Kanawa not only sings gloriously with a continuous flow of full, warm sound, she acts most movingly...For sheer Straussian beauty, evocatively presented, it would be hard to match the rendering here of the final scene.” Penguin Guide, 2010 edition **** | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
