5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent, September 6, 2004
This review is from: Marilyn Horne Recital (Audio CD)
Firstly, much of this music has been released in other formats, and on other recordings. However, these sellections were recorded earlier in Horne's career, and one of them was recorded only this one time, "Noble Seigneur" from Les Hugenots. As with all Horne's recordings, the musicianship is exact and incredible, the colorature is sparkling and vibrant, and well, the diction is wonderful. There is very little to say about this recording. It is simply wonderful, and it is a perfect reflection of what we are used to hearing from this great artist. It shows just how well developed artistically she was, even from the beginning.
