I am a Classical and Opera neophyte looking for some album recommendation(s) which include this great title. I've got it on one of those "Best Of Classical" compiliations and just heard it on my local radio station (AllClassical.org). Every time I hear it, I just melt.
I captured this title info from the radio station play list. Even from an office hifi kit, it sounds magical.
Leo Delibes
Song Title: Lakme: Dome epais... (Flower Duet)
Orchestra/Ensemble: Monte Carlo National Opera Orchestra
Conductor: Richard Bonynge
Artist Name/Performers: Monte Carlo National Opera Orchestra
Instrument/Soloist(s): Joan Sutherland, soprano; Jane Berbie, mezzo-soprano
Name of CD: London 000707102
Any concensus on the best performance, or two, to purchase? I'm strictly in the digital domain now, including hirez formats. I can get a needledrop done if a vinyl version reigns supreme.
Thanks
