Shield: Rosina (CD)
$12.95
Among the bel canto and verismo operatic repertoire Richard Bonynge recorded for Decca, he also found time to unearth much hitherto forgotten ballet scores as well as forgotten music from the Baroque and Classical eras. He also recorded three largely forgotten Baroque operas – Graun’s Montezuma and Bononcini’s Griselda (both in highlight form) and Shield’s Rosina (complete). All three recordings emanated from the 1960s and many included Australians in the casts, among them Margreta Elkins and Kenneth MacDonald.
