5.0 out of 5 stars Great Opera!, December 31, 2011
By 
A. Roth (Baltimore, MD) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Smetana: The Bartered Bride (Audio CD)
I have a great many of the Chandos Opera in English titles, and among them, this one is near the best. I find that these Opera in English vary in quality as to the degree of intelligibility of the words and, if you are buying an opera in english it is because you want to understand.

Well, this one is near the top of the pile. The story itself is sweet and the english is very easy to follow, the singers have clear diction and they sing quite nicely. I do not have this opera in Czech, but I can readily imagine listening to this one often. If you are looking to explore the Opera in English series, this is a good way to start. After that, try the Mozart operas, they are quite good too!
