CD Reviews

Pleasant juvenalia

John Cragg | Delta(greater Vancouver), B.C Canada | 04/10/2001

(3 out of 5 stars)

"Don Procopio was written while Bizet was a student -- having won a prize that took him to Rome. He tried his hand at Italian comic opera and this is the result. Pleasant, harking back to bel-canto comedy, but hardly great music. It receives a competent and enjoyable performance on this set from pretty unknown performers, but it far from being a "must get" recording. It does round out a Bizet collection if you want to get all his operatic works. But it is not up to the level of his later works nor is the recording up to the musical or dramatic levels that you get in the good recordings of Bizet's other operas."
