Opera Intermezzi
Douban
résumé
Universally acknowledged as one of the greatest conductors of both Italian opera and orchestral showpieces, Herbert von Karajan was uniquely qualified to undertake this varied and entertaining programme of interludes and other orchestral music from operas. A rare disc brought together on CD for the first time. A delightful program of Verdi, Mascagni, Puccini, Leoncavallo, Mussorgsky, Schmidt, Massenet, Giordano, Cilèa, Wolf-Ferrari.
