Donizetti’s Don Pasquale has not been recorded an extensive number of times, and the version featured here remains one of the reference classics of the work. Recorded in 1952, this version is of the Orchestra Sinfonica e Coro di Torino della RAI, conducted by Mario Rossi. The vocal cast is outstanding, delivering a flawless performance with accuracy, fluidity, and drama. Performers include Sesto Bruscantini, Mario Borriello, and Cesare Valletti.
