Notes & Reviews:

"Rarities there certainly are here...all featuring Diana Montague prominently. But the gem is a newly released item...[by] Julius Benedict. With its early-Romantic sensibility it makes a wonderful vehicle forMontague's ability to chart a long lyric line...Her sheer technical accomplishment is well displayed in the florid finale to Donizetti's "Zoraida di Granata"...These qualities combine throughout with first-rate musicianship and a keen dramatic sense..." ***** -Hall, BBC
