    Default Opera Sales: CD, DVD, Blu-ray

    A link to "Summer Opera Sale" at Presto Classical.

    Feel free to post similar sales links from time to time. Everyone likes a bargain, and it's particularly important to get newer folk to this discipline interested via reasonable pricing for what often can be very expensive product.

    Remember, more purchases can lead to more discussion. Cheers!

    Yes, as are perennials MDT and Amazon Marketplace.

    As always, to the uninitiated, consider the total package of new or used, price, shipping, delivery, return policies, customer ratings if applicable, etc.

    You just cost me almost $20 on Thomas Ade's The Tempest. Thanks a million.

    That's what it's all about, isn't it, making ourselves feel better about our own profligacy by enticing others to overspend too?

    I've been buying a good deal of dvd performances of symph. and some of Mozart operas. I realized I haven't listen to a whole boat load of opera music for ages now. I scrolled some word searches on Amazon, saw this, 100 best Opera '6 disc' set:



    I got it for $0.01 and $2.98 shipping, 6-disc set, 'VERY GOOD' condition.

    The reviews were very good, but vague.

    I think it's EMI
