CD Reviews

Unacceptable sound quality

Artemisia | Australia | 12/10/2008

(2 out of 5 stars)

"These sopranos are very accomplished. Lily Pons is a particular favourite of mine. I think Janini Micheau is worthy of more than the two tracks she's been given on this disc. Mado Robin's upper range is quite exceptional, but the recordings on this dicc (made in 1942 and 1947) are so of such poor quality as to be unlistenable. This spoils an otherwise excellent CD."
