Dit album is een unieke opname van de eerste uitvoering van William Waltons opera 'Troilus en Cressida' in 1954, uitgevoerd door het Royal Opera House Chorus en orkest onder leiding van Sir Malcolm Sargent. De opera, die oorspronkelijk niet goed werd ontvangen door critici, wordt hier gepresenteerd in een herziene vorm die in 1976 werd uitgevoerd.
Het verhaal van 'Troilus en Cressida' is een klassiek verhaal van liefde en verraad, gebaseerd op het gelijknamige toneelstuk van William Shakespeare. De opera volgt de tragische liefdesgeschiedenis van Troilus en Cressida tegen de achtergrond van de Trojaanse Oorlog.
Deze opname is een waardevolle toevoeging aan het klassieke muziekrepertoire, met een indrukwekkende bezetting van zangers en instrumentalisten. Het album omvat 38 nummers, waaronder de complete opera in drie akten, en biedt een unieke kans om dit meesterwerk te ervaren.
Met een speelduur van 2 uur en 18 minuten is dit album een must voor liefhebbers van klassieke muziek en opera. Het is een getuigenis van de tijdloze schoonheid en kracht van Waltons muziek, en een eerbetoon aan de kunstenaars die deze opera tot leven brengen.
