Rezension:

…Verdi’s longest ballet is that for Les vêpres siciliennes. Often it has seemed to me to lack interest over its 29 minute duration but that is not the case here. Repušić energises his players to a high degree and yet he draws some languorously beautiful sounds from the solo oboe in the summer section. There is a similar skill in the highlighted section of juxtaposed plucked strings. He even brings a touch of humour to the charmingly lugubrious allegro section. Throughout this recording the engineers have given superbly detailed sound with a wonderful spatial bloom to the instruments. This recording is definitely the top choice for anyone wanting a survey of Verdi’s ballet music. It is a truly fine achievement. Ivan Repušić and BR Klassik have already recorded Luisa Miller, I Lombardi, Atilla and I Due Foscari . Hopefully they will add to this excellent series by making recordings of Il Corsaro, Stiffelio and La Battaglia di Legnano; new recordings of these are all definitely needed…
