The first in a Delos Great Scenes series that is designed for both opera-lovers and neophytes alike. Each title in the series captures the essence of that specific opera on one disc. Scenes are chosen to represent the music, drama and characterization that make each opera memorable.
Amelia Haygood, Delos founder and Executive Producer: "I've loved Queen of Spades for most of my life and have long thought it should be up there among the all-time favorites. So, it's a deep joy for me to present the drama and poignancy of Tchaikovsky's music at the high artistic level our singers, conductor and orchestra have achieved here."
Featuring singers Elena Prokina, Sergei Larin, Dmitri Hvorostovsky, Elena Obraztsova, Marina Domashenko and Vassily Gerello.
