103.Siegfried (Goodall Ring Cycle/Chandos Opera in English) by: English National Opera February 27, 2001
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: $48.98 Prices subject to change. Used Price: $23.45
This is completely worth it. Other reviews aptly pointed out everything good, and this is good--brilliant. Alberto Remedios is the best Siegfried I've ever heard, and Rita Hunter is a stunning and convincing Brunnhilde. If I could give this more than five stars, I would.
