| The Washington Post today has a good article about 25 operas you can't live without.
I will amend it as follows, noting that the links lead you to my favorite performances: get the Klemperer Magic Flute, not his recommendations (Boehm, Davis). Add Verdi's Falstaff (von Karajan) and Otello (Levine). You can't leave off Mozart's Don Giovanni (Mitropoulous or Colin Davis). Finally, Moses and Aaron is an opera to love even if you don't usually warm to Schoenberg, buy the second Boulez recording. -- Posted by Tyler Cowen to The Volokh Conspiracy at 8/31/2003 05:42:30 AM Powered by Blogger Pro |
