Arias from: Charles Gounod: La Reine de Saba, Sapho, Faust. Ernest Reyer: Sigurd. Jacques Halévy: La Juive. Jules Massenet: Marie-Magdeleine, Werther. Christoph Gluck: Iphigénie en Tauride. Hector Berlioz: La Damnation de Faust. Georges Bizet: Carmen. Camille Saint-Saëns: Ascanio.

Régine Crespin (sop.), with Symphony Orchestra cond. Jésus Etcheverry (Tracks 1-7), Orchestre de la Suisse Romande cond. Alain Lombard (Tracks 8-14).

This CD, which combines material from a VEGA LP of 1961 and a DECCA recording made 10 years later, provides a wonderful portrait of La Crespin in her prime, and should appeal to all her many admirers - even if they have the originals! Other opera fans will be attracted by rarities from Massenet, Saint-Saëns, and Ernest Reyer, which help to make this a thoroughly worthwhile reissue.
