I can't guarantee it will be up to your sound quality standards, but one 'oldie but goodie' -- at least from the standpoint of performance -- is Leontyne Price & Marilyn Horne In Concert at the Met recorded live March 28, 1982. This is a 2 CD box set on RCA Red Seal available in the used market at Amazon.
Well Recorded Best of Opera Hits
Not being an expert in opera, I do on occasion enjoy it. (My first opera I attended was Verdi's Il Trovatore in Vienna (1987) and I did enjoy it, but have not been to many since.) So I am looking for a well recorded "best of" opera CD that I can enjoy. There are so many recordings going back decades and of likely great operatic performances, but I am asking for great opera and great recording of it. If my request is not too lofty, I would enjoy your recommendations. Thanks.
