About
In 1958, she essayed Cherubini’s Medea – one of her favourite roles – and recorded extended excerpts of it for Columbia in New York. High Fidelity compared Farrell’s interpretation favourably to Callas’s, praising her “voice of almost flawless beauty, and she is a musician of great intelligence.” Gramophone concurred: “The disc should be heard by all lovers of fine singing.” Farrell’s Met debut – as Gluck’s Alceste, also included in this collection – came in 1960. Also included in this box set are works by Verdi, Schubert, Puccini, Beethoven and Debussy.
