The item features Giuseppe Verdi's \"Requiem,\" performed by great operatic voices such as Leontyne Price, Fiorenza Cossotto, Luciano Pavarotti, and Nicolai Ghiaurov. The recording features conductor Herbert von Karajan, leading the Chorus and Orchestra of the Teatro alla Scala in Milan.

The logo of this classical music label is clearly visible in the upper right corner of the jacket, attesting to the authenticity and prestige of this edition. The main information (title, performers, conductor, director) is printed in white and pink letters on a dark background, ensuring optimal readability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe cassette is filmed under cellophane, suggesting it has not been opened, but this cannot be guaranteed without physical verification. No details of the back or spine are visible in the photo. The general presentation is neat, with a classic rectangular VHS case and a jacket inserted under plastic.
