The song recital given by Cesare Siepi brings back memories of the legendary production of Don Giovanni staged during the Mozart bicentenary celebrations of 1956. Both as Don Giovanni himself and in his recital programme that same summer, Siepi delighted audiences with his warm bass voice. It was in fact not so much a song recital in the strict sense of the term but more of a highly personal encounter with a great singer who was a declared favourite with the Salzburg Festival's audiences. It is also a prime example of the great evenings of singing with which the Festival was to regale its ecstatic audiences from 1956 onwards. Siepi's programme was chosen to showcase his beautiful voice and cultivated singing but also his artistic versatility. Live Recording 1956. | | | Usually despatched in 3 - 4 working days. |

“The Frenchman Gérard Souzay (1918-2004) was undoubtedly one of the greatest baritones of the post-war period… Souzay's voice was… rich and smoothly produced, with an integral legato, always favouring the flow of the vocal lines… a style perfect for the predominantly French songs in these recitals. For TV recordings of this vintage the quality is excellent, making this recommendable to anyone who loves fine singing.” BBC Music Magazine, March 2007 ***** | | | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days. |
