La Clemenza di Tito (complete opera)
Teresa Berganza, Werner Krenn, Maria Casula, Lucia Popp / Wiener Staatsopernorchester / Istvan Kertasz

[ Decca Classic Opera / 2 CD ]

Release Date: Sunday 19 February 2006

"This recording is of interest for its seminal importance in the re-emergence of La Clemenza di Tito on stage and record. As such it is well worth the mid-price cost which includes a libretto and English translation."
(MusicWeb March 2006)

Returning to the catalogue after a long absence, this performance of Mozart's great opera seria masterpiece features a superb cast of leading Mozartians with the Vienna Philharmonic conducted by Ivan Kertész. Teresa Berganza, Lucia Popp and Brigitte Fassbaender, in particular, give outstanding portrayals of their respective roles.

'Kertész attacks Mozart's last opera with fine dramatic directness...very vivid recording...generally excellent singing' The Penguin Guide To Opera
