Meyerbeer: Le Prophete (Complete opera recorded in 1976) Marilyn Horne, Renata Scotto, James McCracken, Jerome Hines / Ambrosian Opera Chorus, Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Henry Lewis [ Sony Classical Opera / 2 CD Box Set - released 1/Aug/2016 ] "The role calls for a Brünnhilde range with an Amneris-type voice: the vocal flexibility and dramatic punch needed are extraordinary. Miss Horne has them all, and she brings out the pathos of the part without sentimentalizing it." (Gramophone) |
