The literature on the box of this set including masterful recordings of Puccini's Manon Lescaut, La Boheme, Tosca, Madama Butterfly, and Turandot, says it all: this box set contains the definitive recordings of Puccini's most popular operas. The set was released by Decca records to celebrate what would be the 150th birthday of the late Italian composer. Each opera included is graced by the voice of maestro Luciano Pavarotti in the lead tenor roles, as well as other greats including Joan Sutherland, Mirella Freni, Montserrat Caballe, Christa Ludwig, Sherrill Milnes, Rolando Panerai, Dwayne Croft, Cecilia Bartoli, Ramon Vargas, and others. Conducting is handled by maestros Herbert von Karajan, Zubin Mehta, and James Levine. Can you imagine a better way to celebrate Puccini, celebrate opera, than this box set?...at this price? Thank you Decca records!
