Verdi
“An exciting cast, suitably vigorous conducting and a lifelike recording make this a spectacular addition to Philips’s repertory of Young Verdi”, “Marriner conducts a direct, forward-moving interpretation that matches the raw energy in the score. His old orchestra offer playing of admirable thrust and delicacy as required. The London Voices sound properly Italianate.”, “All in all, this is an important addition to the Verdi discography.” Gramophone
