5.0 out of 5 stars Inge Borkh:Hidden treasure, June 14, 2004

This review is from: Inge Borkh (Audio CD)

One of the outstanding singers of the last 60 years, among the most exciting 'Elektras', yet almost unrepresented on commercial recordings ('Elektra' and 'Salome' excerpts with Reiner, and Decca's 1959 'Turandot' with Del Monaco are about all). This set is a great bargain intro to this full-voiced, edgy, sexy, nuancy, spinta (comparisons are always lazy and odious, but consider your condition if you'd missed Gencer, Olivera, or Cerqueti.)
