Kelli O'Hara and Steven Pasquale perform this classic romance as a genuine duet — O'Hara's restraint against Pasquale's warmth creates the exact tension the story requires, and at four hours the listen has the compression and ache of something that knows it doesn't have much time. Seven of the recommendations are highly rated, and the list shares that same commitment to romantic emotion delivered with enough restraint to hurt.
