The mid-price collection presents some of the most important and admired recordings of the EMI Classics and Virgin Classics catalogue which make EMI 'The Home of Opera'. These performances of Die lustige Witwe and Das Land des Lachelns starring Elisabeth Schwarzkopf were recorded in 1953 at the Kingsway Hall, London.

“Schwarzkopf has both sparkle and youthful vivacity, and the Viljalied - ecstatically drawn out - is unique...The Land of Smiles has a comparably glamorous roster...Schwarzkopf and Kunz sing delectably, and the CD transfers are lively and full of presence.” Penguin Guide, 2011 edition
