Lalo's Fiesque

[edurban]

This opera recording does not seem to be available in the US.  I have it as a private recording made off a Radio Montpellier (or whatever it's called) broadcast a few years back, but here it is in official form.

Those who love Lalo will find plenty to enjoy here, especially since much of the opera was later reused in more now-familiar contexts.  Alagna is the star and is in good form (I believe his ex-wife was originally scheduled to take part, but their personal problems intervened.)
