I heard this recording on the radio and had to buy it. It is gorgeous, magical. The voices are all perfect and the orchestra is sublime. Best version of this opera I've ever heard. It's available very cheaply (used) from Amazon. And yes, the CD cover is just awful!

Oh Karen you’re my muse. You have named your site quiet appropriately. I just love it and I must find time to read and soak up everything you have posted. What wealth of information and a lot of everything I love and have passion for…will definitely be back.
p.s. I think no …I know what you said about my site is on the contrary the opposite. My site is pale to yours. Have a lovely day.
Luv Annabelle
