Meyerbeer: Il Crociato in Egitto

Montague; Kenny; Jones; Ford; Platt; Kitchen; Benelli; Royal Philharmonic Orchestra; Parry

"The recording is based on the Venice manuscript, and is claimed as the first presentation of the original Venice score since its premiere. Gratitude and congratulations are due to all concerned: especially to David Parry, who as ever conducts a spirited and businesslike performance, to Don White who contributes a valuable introductory essay, to the recording team for producing such clean sound, and to the Peter Moores Foundation for help in making it possible." (Gramophone)

Press Reviews

Collectors Reviews

Gramophone

"This was the sixth and last opera which Meyerbeer wrote for Italy. The musical invention may not often be very distinctive, but the writing is consistently lively, notably in the ensembles."
