This review is from: Rossini: Guglielmo Tell (William Tell) (Audio CD)

Rossini: Guglielmo Tell (William Tell) is a recording under the direction of Riccrado Muti who leads the Orchestra e Caro del Teatro ala Scala di Milano on this Philips Classics Productions from 1989. The booklet is massive and contains 300 pages. It contains 3 short essays and a synopsis which is quite alot but also very ambitious. The lyrics are available in English, French, German and Italian. The sound quality is impeccable and one verily feels as if one was sitting live listening to this amazing performance. Highly recommended. 5/5.

What a gem. Cheryl Studer must be one of the most under-rated sopranos in the recording studios.
This is my third disc with her and they are all superb. This William Tell is possibly a little faster paced than some but the whole cast is good and the chorus' are equally great.
I would recommend this as a first choice William Tell.
