5.0 out of 5 stars Really good, 15 Jan 2011
This is very good indeed, and a true bargain at this price. I think it's better than the Tebaldi version (despite the presence of Bjorling on that version), which is also available from Amazon mp3 at the same price. The conducting is superb - each bar is perfectly phrased, and the orchestra is in fine voice. As also is Callas, combining dynamic singing with passionate voice-acting. However, not everyone warms to Callas's voice (a bit harsh - expressive, but not beautiful) - perhaps it's an acquired taste (but at this price, you can afford to acquire it). Sound-quality is good or above, but obviously not up to present-day standards.

5.0 out of 5 stars A whole opera for peanuts!, 21 Oct 2009
By

(REAL NAME)   
Cavalleria Rusticana
What a bargain! A bit of the opening music is missing, but the rest is superb. The only drawback is, that it's continuous, with no separate tracks, but this is also an advantage. With other recordings, there is always a break in continuity when it goes from one track to the next, and this is one opera where continuity is so important. I love it, and would recommend it highly to any "verismo" opera lover. Tebaldi's sobs are heartbreaking.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thrilling Cav/Pag recording, 20 Aug 2005
By Scott Jelsey "tscott2" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Leoncavallo: I Pagliacci/Mascagni: Cavalleria Rusticana (Audio CD)
Muti's recording of the Cavalleria Rusicana, Pagliacci is one of the very best. Carreras is most impassioned, singing both tenor roles. He is in gorgeous voice here - one of his very greatest recordings. Caballe is exquisite, if a little detached drmatically, as Santuzza. Still, a vocally sumptuous reading. Scotto, on the other hand is completely on fire as Nedda - wow! Her upper register is not always as secure as Caballe's, but she has the verismo style in her voice like few other modern sopranos. Muti conducts a taut, intense reading and the recorded sound is exceptional. Don't miss this one...
