Recommend Verdi's Nabucco/Va pensiero

I'm slowly getting into classical and I own no operas. Today I heard a piece from Verdi's Nabucco opera (from Egyptian emperor Nabucodonosor), called Va Pensiero that I really liked. Please recommend the versions you like most. I'm especially interested in buying high resolution music online.

Thank you!

I guess you didn't like the recommendations.

Frogman's suggestions are excellent - another good recording of several different Verdi choruses on the same album is one conducted by Claudio Abbado with the La Scala orchestra and chorus, on the DG label.

Frogman: Sorry I didn't come back to the thread. It's not that I didn't like the recommendations, but rather I couldn't find the albums you recommended online or locally (I'm overseas). I do appreciate the input, though. I might need to have it shipped from the US.

Learsfool: Thanks for your input too. Will look into it.
