Description

Mastered from the Original RCA Master Tapes by Bernie Grundman and cut at 45 RPM. 200 Gram, 4 One-Sided, Clarity SV-P II Vinyl. Alexander Gibson conducts the Royal Opera House Orchestra, Covent Garden performing ballet music from Charles Gounod's Faust and Georges Bizet's Carmen Suite. Featuring orchestral highlights from Faust and Carmen, the later selections on Side 2 are nothing short of spectacular. This is one of the rarest RCA Living Stereo titles that brings over $1,000 in mint condition. Faust is a grand opera in five acts by Charles Gounod to a French libretto by Jules Barbier and Michel Carré from Carré's play Faust et Marguerite, in turn loosely based on Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's Faust, Part 1. It debuted at the Théâtre Lyrique on the Boulevard du Temple in Paris on 19 March 1859. Carmen is an opera in four acts by the French composer Georges Bizet. The libretto was written by Henri Meilhac and Ludovic Halévy, based on a novella of the same title by Prosper Mérimée. The opera was first performed at the Opéra-Comique in Paris, on 3 March 1875, and was not at first particularly successful; its initial run extended to 36 performances. Before this run was concluded, Bizet died suddenly, and thus knew nothing of the opera's later celebrity. This is one of the jewels in the RCA Living Stereo crown. This, like the Scheherazade and Pines of Rome, is considered one of the very best LPs by RCA and RCA's crew.
