Faust - "O merveille! ... A moi les plaisirs"

1859 – Faust: "O merveille! ... A moi les plaisirs"

The Act I finale of Charles Gounod's Faust (1859), sung by Enrico Caruso and Marcel Journet in 1910.

An excellent duet, gives us both a file for a major opera and a major singer which didn't have one before. Plus, it's one of the better-preserved historical recordings.

Support - beautiful duet, the crackle in the backgroung is not so disturbing. I have my breakfast right now, and it's very nice addendum to my coffee and croissant :)) --Vejvančický (talk) 09:04, 20 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
