Box Set in Excellent condition. Outer box corners are sharp and color of box and gold leaf lettering are vibrant and sharp. Box has VERY slight wear on front and back cover and small drillhole in back near the limited edition plate on the back. Button flap looks to have been bent back a few times when opening. Records are in Near Mint condition. Looks to have been played very sparingly or not at all. Vinyl is shiny and plays beautifully.
Review: Georg Solti conducts Bizet's Carmen with Troyanos, Domingo, Te Kanawa, Van Dam and the London Philharmonic Orchestra with the John Alldis Choir and the Boy's Chorus from Haberdashers' Aske's School Elstree. The Penguin Stereo Record Guide gives this its best 3 Star rating, 'superb playing and singing stunningly brilliant recording. Yet Solti's Decca version is remarkable for its new illumination of characters. Troyanos is quite simply the subtlest Carmen on record. Escamillo too is more readily sympathetic, Don Jose is revealed as weak rather than just a victim. This dramatic and sensitive account from Solti must now take first place.
