Joan Sutherland - Complete Decca Recordings: Operas 1959-1970 [49 CD Boxset]

Joan Sutherland - "The Complete Decca Recordings: Operas 1959-1970" [49 CD Boxset] The Complete Decca Recordings: Operas 1959-1970 includes an early example of her Mozart, singing Donna Anna in Don Giovanni (with Giulini, 1959), a 'live' Alcina recorded the same year with Fritz Wunderlich, the first of two recordings of Lucia di Lammermoor (Pritchard), as well as Faust, Norma, Semiramide, Lakmé and Les Huguenots (all conducted by Bonynge). No Sutherland offering would be complete without rarities, and this volume includes highlights from Graun's Montezuma and Bononcini's Griselda. Accompanying each edition are insightful notes from Raymond McGill, an introduction by Richard Bonynge, and an audio documentary by Jon Tolansky. The booklets accompanying this 49-CD set are lavishly illustrated with photographs, some from the Richard Bonynge archive which have not previously been published.
