Little can be added to what’s been written about this landmark recording, except that Walter Legge’s 1953 mono production yields nothing to modern Tosca recordings for vivacity and theatrical impact–especially Maria Callas’s. The miraculous Victor de Sabata conjures up a vibrant, inspiring orchestral canvas that enables Callas and her stellar cohorts to work their magic. Tito Gobbi and Callas spur each other on to heights in which the characters take over from the singers in the listener’s mind. Giuseppe Di Stefano is on his best behavior, and in fresher voice than on his fine Leontyne Price-Herbert von Karajan remake. On this set, EMI includes texts, translations, and notes that discuss this recording in the context of Callas’s mercurial career. –Jed Distler
