5 out of 5 stars Viva Cerquetti!.......2006-05-24

This might well be one of the best live Opera recordings ever. A great unknown Opera to begin with, one of Cherubini's last, much better written than the early Medea. Giulini knew exactly what he was doing when he revived this masterpiece. His style is precisely right. No words can describe Anita Cerquetti in this performance. Having absolutely nothing in common with Callas - in fact, it's like she doesn't know the human race has produced its most terrifying mirror (Callas) - she cuts through you with exactly yhe same intensity Callas does. And NO ONE DOES THAT, right? RIGHT? Wrong. Anita did it for a handful of years in a handful of Operas, then retired to raise her family and is now living in Rome and being a beautiful person. It's just plain stupid not to have this, the Ernani with Mitropoulos and the Decca Recital with Serafin. Most of your Opera collection is dispensable. Anita Cerquetti will take good care of you for the rest of your life. Oh God, there she is doing Act 3 again... Oh God... Oh God...
