Callas Remastered honors the legendary Maria Callas with new transfers of all her studio recordings. For this release, engineers returned to the original 1957 master tapes, bringing new clarity and brilliance to a classic interpretation.
Callas sang the role of Turandot 24 times onstage in the late 1940s. She brings unusual subtlety to Puccini’s icy princess, while Elisabeth Schwarzkopf – more readily identified with Fiordiligi and the Marschallin – is surprise casting as the self-sacrificing Liù.
“Callas sings with wonderful concern for detail…. Turandot is one of her greatest roles.” (Gramophone)
