THE ROYAL OPERA HOUSE GIFT SHOP: Outstanding Recordings

Filed under: Music — tmooresr @ 5:07 am

One of the reasons I like to be in London is my ability to find great musical recordings.   I have a difficult time finding great operatic recordings when I am after an artist I want to hear and add to my music library.  While I was in the Royal Opera House in Covent Garden a couple of weeks ago, I went into the gift shop–you know me, JUST CURIOUS.  I walked over to the shelves of wonderful recordings.  I had a smile all over my face when I realized I had solved one of my problems:  where to find great CD’s.  The shelves were lined with fabulous recordings by contemporary operatic stars as well as the recordings of the great performers we all remember fondly.  I just wanted to remind my readers that when you are in Covent Garden, walk over to the Opera House and check out the gift shop.  I bought seven recordings which I am certainly enjoying until I can get back to those shelves of  opera on my next trip.  Just thought I would make a suggestion here.
