Review by karen sergent

The album Mefistofele Gesamtaufnahme In Italienischer Sprache by Boito Treigle, Domingo, Caballé, Ambrosian Opera Chorus, London Symphony Orchestra Julius Rudel is a masterpiece that showcases the best of Italian opera. The album features a stellar cast of performers, including the legendary Shirley Verrett, who brings her signature dramatic flair to the role of Margherita.

The Ambrosian Opera Chorus and the London Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Julius Rudel, provide a powerful and dynamic backdrop to the vocal performances, creating a rich and immersive listening experience.

The standout performances on the album come from Norman Treigle as Mefistofele and Placido Domingo as Faust. Treigle's deep and resonant voice perfectly captures the sinister and seductive nature of the devil, while Domingo's soaring tenor brings a sense of passion and longing to the role of Faust.
