5.0 out of 5 stars Superlative performance. Skillful and loving re-mastering., 28 Feb 2005

By	Paul McQuillan (Sunderland, England) - See all my reviews

This Naxos re-mastering of EMI's legendary 1953 recording of this opera is of serious worth to the collector. Naxos's recent habit of taking recordings which have passed their 50-year copyright limit and transferring them on to CD from original LPs has brought some pleasing results, although it must be said that the process has its limitations. However, in the case of this opera, the very limitations in the dynamic range of the original LPs is beneficial, because the original master-tapes have such serious defects (mainly overloading and distortion). This has resulted in EMI's own CD releases revealing these inherent weaknesses all too clearly. The warmer 'vinyl-like' sound is to be preferred in this case.

The actual performance cannot be missed, if only for Callas's supreme interpretation of the heroine's role. Gobbi is a characterful Enrico; Di Stefano hardly perfectly cast as Edgardo, but earnest enough. Serafin's direction is secure, but of course, as was the habit in the 1950s, huge cuts are made in the score. Still, at this price, the opera-lover is very much recommended to buy this CD.
