IMPORTANT NOTE: The original master recordings contain some technical problems, including distortion, a few dropouts, and some instances of flutter and pre-echo. Despite these problems, this groundbreaking stereo recording of Monteverdi's Vespri is being made available because of both its overall artistic excellence and its importance as a document of performance practice prior to the trend toward "authentic" interpretive approaches and use of original instruments.
