The Leopard (u)
Label: NAXOS AUDIOBOOKS Catalog: NA799612 Format: CD DAVID HOROVITCHDavid Horovitch’s voice, rich in timbre and sepia in tone, is wonderfully paired with this masterpiece, a tale of degeneration and ruin. Like the declining House of Salina itself, Horovitch’s presentation possesses a certain “shabby grandeur” that acquires a suitably obnoxious edge in conveying the vulgarity and ruthlessness of those who are tearing down the old order with the help of upstart money, main chance and relentless ambition.
