Verdi: Don Carlo

Don Carlo is a work of extraordinary scope and richness, as this recording proves time and again. In 1970, twelve years after he had conducted a landmark production of the opera at Covent Garden, Carlo Maria Giulini again took charge of the forces of London’s Royal Opera House. He drew vividly memorable performances from an illustrious cast, led by Plácido Domingo as the ill-fated Spanish prince.
