Gluck: Iphigénie en Tauride, Muti/La Scala (2-CD)

Christoph Willibald Gluck is historically opera’s most important reformer. Iphigénie en Tauride, arguably his greatest achievement, is a work Italian conductor Riccardo Muti has returned to repeatedly. Here, he is joined by Carol Vaness in the title role, hailed by Fanfare as “well-nigh flawless.”
