Average Rating: [4.0 out of 5 stars]

Reviewer: johnorford - [5.0 out of 5 stars] - October 15, 2008
Subject: even slower
And Gigli's 1933 recording is even slower. I prefer a little more pace, but Caruso wins me over with everything he does.

Reviewer: Oliver Mundy - [4.0 out of 5 stars] - November 7, 2007
Subject: Caruso's baroque revival
Caruso sings baroque opera, complete with recitative - there is even some kind of continuo! It is good to be reminded that even at this late stage, when he was concentrating on heavy roles such as Halévy's Eleazar, Caruso could still produce an effortless lyrical flow. A warning, though, to people of the Harnoncourt generation: it is *very* slow and statuesque, especially the opening recitative. Clara Butt's 1915 version is noticeably livelier.
