2.0 out of 5 stars Poorly engineered recording., July 18, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Berio: The Great Works for Voice (Audio CD)

One of the worst engineered recordings in recent times. Recorded in a very reverberant Church in NYC. Engineering is amateur, and performances are at best serviceable. Stick with the (excellent) Berberian recording of Circles (still available on Wergo). Many other far superior recordings of the Folk Songs on the market; ditto the Sequenza. One to skip. Shame on MODE for this release.
