Description / My Opinion

The booklet contains some photos of the show and the performers, as well as the history of this concert and a synopsis.
02/04/99 - From the moment I've bought this recording, I've been playing it more and more frequently: it has become one of my prefered. Jonathan Pryce's performance is incredible, really, and I fell in love with this recording. It's music has magic. The Bells of St. Sebastian (I shiver as I write the title!) is one of my prefered musical songs, but songs as Unusual Way have their plenty of great emotions. Well, that's maybe what can describe best this recording: emotion.
