Product Description
CD89984 Le Cid [Massenet] Alagna, Uria-Monzon; Marseille, 17 June 20
I have deleted and will reupload disc 2, it seems that something went wrong and it was giving an error in un-zipping. Due to the fact that uploading is a very slow process, it will most probably be available tomorrow.
Here you have the recording of the live broadcast from Mezzo tv, SD. I should warn you that the performance was rather boring and somehow dissapointing to me,
both in vocal and scenic aspects. The production is conservative and pretty much
un-imaginative, while the performers seemed to me less than adequate for their parts and not in their best vocal form. Still, it is a document of a very rarely
presented opera, with a lot of very interesting music. Unfortunately, a very nice piece, the ballet, was cut. I recorded it from digital CATV to an HDD-dvd-recorder, than split it in several parts. The whole broadcast was about 3 hours long, with one long [some 30 min] intermission and a few shorter [5-10 minutes] ones that were necessary for the changing of the scenery. I tried to preserve the maximum quality and, as the opera would not fit onto 2 discs, I spread it on 3, keeping all the intermission features. that include interviews with the two leads, the conductor, the manager and Frederic Mitterand, the Minister of Culture, present for the ocasion. But I re-arranged them to fit better, so the first disc has only the fisrt scene, about 25 min, and the long intermission; the second has the rest of the first part [rest of act 1 and act 2]; the third has the rest [acts 3 and 4]. The 3 dvd-video folders were zipped and uploaded each in a single file. The opera has French subtitles [a transcription of the text, very useful for those who can understand and do not have the libretto]; the intermissions have English subtitles; neither are 100% complete.

We sell only opera recordings. The recordings are sent to you in paper sleeves with no tray card or inserts, just the raw discs with printed labels. These recordings are of nonprofessional quality that are in the public domain. The quality of these old opera recordings is not very good and they are meant for collectors and educational purposes only. Most of them are 30 or 40 years old, so they might be blurry, colors faded, and not sound very good, but they might not be available elsewhere. Please note that most of our recordings do not have tracks, they have 1 long track per disc.
