Gounod: Faust (highlights)
March 7, 2016Recorded in 1966 in superb ‘Decca Sound’, these highlights from Gounod’s most widely-performed opera, extract music from the second act onwards. The Soldiers’ Chorus has rarely been done with such swagger, Ghiaurov is a terrifying Mephistopheles and Corelli a passionate Dr. Faust.
