Description

Audio CD presented in its jewel case with a red spine visible on the left. The front cover features a color photograph of a singer in period costume, against a brown-gold background, evoking an operatic setting. The name "Elisabeth Grümmer" appears prominently at the top right, in a modern typeface that highlights the initials "E" and "G" in red. The trilingual mention "OPERNARIEN / OPERA ARIAS / AIRS D’OPÉRAS" is placed just below, clearly indicating the specialized musical content in the lyrical repertoire.

The list of performed works is shown in a column on the right side of the cover: "Le Nozze di Figaro, Cosi fan tutte, Die Zauberflöte, Don Giovanni, Der Freischütz, Tannhäuser, Otello, Faust, Mignon, Der Rosenkavalier". These titles highlight great opera classics, mainly from the Germanic and Italian repertoire, suggesting a varied program around classical vocal art.

At the bottom right, the EMI Studio DRM logo, typical of classical music productions from the second half of the 20th century, is clearly visible. The reference "CDM 7 63137 2" appears just above the logo, allowing for precise identification of this edition.

The overall presentation of the CD is sober and elegant, with an off-white dominant on the cover and touches of red, consistent with the graphic universe of EMI Studio editions of the era. No major signs of wear are visible on the front of the case or the cover, with the exception of a few light traces of use on the plastic, typical for this type of media.

This CD is intended for anyone looking for a vocal recording of opera arias performed by Elisabeth Grümmer, a key figure in classical singing, on original EMI Studio media. The object, by its design, evokes a production from the 1980s-1990s, typical of the standard CD format of that period.
