5.0 out of 5 stars A wondreful cd., 5 Sep 2001
By A Customer
A wonderful cd, specially for the excellent intervencion of Peter Pears in a great artistic and vocal state. Pears was a tenor without a magnificence voice but for this repertoire his refined manners and musicallity are in common sense with the the Britten works, and not properly with the vocal line ,specially designed for him, than with his spirit. Pears and Brtitten, had been a good partneships with this too.Perhaps Pears sings more brilliant than Brittten conducts. One cd that I have no doubt to recommend. The recording was made around 50 years ago, but we can understand everithing.
