Solti: The Legacy 1937-97
Part of the centenary celebrations, Decca released Solti, The Legacy, available for order on Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk and other online stores, as CD or MP3 album.
Track 14 on the second CD is Angla Gheorghiu's Pace, pace mio Dio, recorded with Sir Solti in January 1997 [studio], previously unpublished
Angela Gheorghiu / London Symphony Orchestra / Sir Georg Solti
This album of hitherto unpublished live recordings and rare and in some cases unpublished studio items reflects some of the most vital elements of Sir Georg Solti s life in music over a six-decade period, from 1937 to 1997. It is a centenary testament to his powerful presence, not only as a major influential force in the opera house and concert hall, but also as a discoverer and champion of the very finest young singing talent of his time. In particular it includes many of the leading ladies of opera he believed in and supported, and there is also a concert in which he joins one of his favourite younger pianists. Additionally, some of his chosen singers can be heard with him in a unique rehearsal document that has never appeared before.
