I recently wanted to re-read Ralph Moore's review of Rossini's La pietra del paragone, and I noticed that his reviews of 'Three harder-to-find' Rossini operas aren't listed under Resources and Articles with his other surveys. I found it easily enough by searching for 'paragone', but I was puzzled by the omission.

I fully agree with his review, even if I find the sonic inadequacies a bit hard to take. It's a very professional performance marred by distinctly amateur engineering. It sounds like it was recorded on a cassette deck in someone's mum's garage.
