Sir Charles Mackerras with the OAE performing some of Mendelssohn's Overtures and the 'Italian'. Beautiful sound and textures from the orchestra. I havent heard these works with an Orchestra like the OAE before.
That is an interesting one all right Dave!

This is an impressive performance all around, both from the instrumentalists and the vocalists.

I think that this was undoubtedly the best performance so far of the cycle; it was wonderful!

I really like the sound of von Stade’s voice in this version as well as the very good orchestral arrangement.

lovely lush sound from this LP. Sounds quite a bit different than the CD version.
