Lehár: Die Lustige Witwe
The first Disc of the Day that hasn't been dug out of a cupboard or drawer. I bought this for a couple of pounds from Ebay the other day as I don't know it at all and this particular recording has had rave reviews pretty much everywhere over the years.
On first listen I love it - packed full of melody and with some delightful singing (especially from Cheryl Studer). Definitely something I will be returning to again and a pleasant surprise for me to hear John Eliot Gardiner in repertoire from this period.
