“[Volle] is supported by an orchestra rightly wedded to extremes and a chorus with high energy levels and the crispest enunciation. Wolfgang Sawallisch's speeds may be sensible, but he does his experienced best to project the psychological drama of the Old Testament story.” BBC Music Magazine, September 2011 *** “Sawallisch is in complete command: he was an opera conductor of enormous experience, and it shows...The chorus and orchestra are the real stars of the performance. The former are full-throated when required but capable of delicacy...Michael Volle is an authoritative Elijah...If you are happy with the German, this lively version will afford much pleasure.” Gramophone Magazine, September 2011 | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
