Irmgard Seefried, Gerhard Stolze & Hermann Uhde Czech Philharmonic Chorus & Orchestra, Igor Markevitch "Markevitch's vintage version, recorded in the mid-1960s, still sounds remarkably well. In his straight-faced way Markevitch makes the incongruity of Gounod's jolly and vulgar tunes all the more delectable, and soloists, chorus and orchestra are all first rate."Penguin Guide*** “Drilled and stately it may be, but Gounod would have been surprised by such a poker-faced rendition. Gerhard Stolze, despite success in Wagnerian roles, makes possibly the most ill-suited Sanctus soloist ever heard.” BBC Music Magazine, December 2007 *** | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
