The sound from these 3 CD's is stunning. Simon Rattle has wonderful control over his orchestra, with great dynamic sound. I set the sound level on my equipment for a great voice level, and I found that the music comes on rather strongly at times, but this does not dampen the performance. How Simon has so much control over his orchestra, baffles me! The wonderful performances from the main characters is stunning, and the choir is magnificent! The entire performance runs for about 3 hours, and I loved it. THIS IS OPERA AT IT'S BEST!!! I thoroughly recommend this version of "Porgy and Bess." This is a treasured CD!!!
