"A remarkably fine reproduction of Il Trovatore and one of the best examples, if not the very best, of opera-recording that has been put forward since the electrical process came into use" - The Gramophone, 1931
Recorded some 94 years ago in Milan, this 1930 masterpiece remains one of the greatest recordings of Verdi's Il Trovatore, starring Aureliano Pertile, with superb support from Maria Carena, Apollo Granforte and Irene Minghini-Cattaneo. These new transfers by Mark Obert-Thorn bring brilliant new life to an all-time great!
We also celebrate this week the 125th birthday of Eugene Ormandy, with a special 20% discount on all his recordings at Pristine.
