Tuscany: A Romantic Journey
For anyone who enjoys classical music, this is a "must-have"! I have listened to the cd every day since it arrived, sometimes several times a day. It is soothing and restful, a lovely calm in the midst of a busy life.

The Best Opera Album in the World...Ever!

Ernest Blanc, Robert Massard, ...

Angel Records, 1999

Great for the amateur Opera listener
As a long time armchair Opera listener I'm shocked that I hadn't come across this album until recently. I'm not really an Opera connoisseur so my review is based on just the fact that I love Opera, but mostly by listening to arias or occasionally going to the Opera. ...

Dinner Classics: The Italian Album

Keith Marjoram, Luigi Boccherini, ...

Sony, 1990

Bravo!
I heard this album for the first time at a restuarant in Florence during my trip to Italy. I was surprised it was from the US beacause it has captured the very soul of Italy. After 7 years it has remained my favorite of all Puccini cds I own. I especially like the ...

Pavarotti Forever

David Romano, Adolphe Adam, ...

Decca, 2007

The Gift.
It is sad, isn't it, that we take our gifted artists for granted until they're gone forever. I'm guilty of that short-sightedness to this day and here is a great example. When Pavarotti began his rush to fame in the early 1990's, like many others, I just knew his ...

Andrea Bocelli - Sacred Arias / Myung-Whun Chung

George Frideric Handel, Giulio Caccini, ...

Philips, 1999

Beautiful music
This is my second copy of this CD, I burned the first one out!! Andrea Bocelli has a very gorgeous voice that is a gift from above. His voice is not affected or braggadoccio but naturally magnificent. I could and do start my day listening to this spiritually uplifting ...

Rapture
Rapture: Opera's Most Heavenly Moments Absolutely fantastic! Stare into space and enjoy this music.

The #1 Opera Album

Giacomo Puccini, Giuseppe Verdi, ...

Decca, 2001

great collection
If one was wanting to introduce a friend to the wonderful world of opera, this would be a great cd to buy them. Also at this time when many of us are worrying about Luciano and his health , it is great to hear him featured on many of the selections. A great buy and ...

The Most Relaxing Classical Album in the World...Ever!

Johann Sebastian Bach, Léo Delibes, ...

Angel Records, 1999

Good for relaxing pregnant women
I stumbled onto this album whilst searching bit torrent websites for classical music. I don't normally listen to classical music but thought it might be relaxing for my pregnant wife. After hearing the quality of the performances, the arrangement, and the recording I ...

Cieli di Toscana

Andrea Bocelli, Pierpaolo / Luciani, Paolo Guerrini, ...

Philips, 2001

See Other Andrea Bocelli Review
Just what it says. See my other Andrea Bocelli reviews to get the idea I really like this guy.

Into Paradise

Tomaso Albinoni, Frode Alnaes, ...

Decca, 2006

Sissel Into Paradise
Fabulous! Another great Sissel CD. Has a lighter touch than other music selections by Sissel but her fabulous voice is so versatile that it's soars no matter the style of music.

The Very Best of Franco Corelli

Vincenzo Bellini, Salvatore Cardillo, ...

EMI Classics, 2003

Franco Corelli's "Best"
This is a representative collection of several recordings made by Franco Corelli in the 1960s, which the "very best" phrase does not even begin to describe in terms of his matchless technique and distinctive interpretation. Very well selected to give you an image in a ...

The Opera Album

Maria Callas, Placido Domingo

EMI Classics, 2002

Nessun dorma!
This set of two CDs is a great way to listen to some highlights from many different operas when you aren't in the mood to listen to a full opera. Many of your favorite arias are here, such as Nessun Dorma, Habanera, Non piu andrai etc. But what I liked most about it is ...

Bella Tuscany: Music Inspired by Tuscany

Tomaso Albinoni, Giovanni Gabrieli, ...

Telarc, 2004

Bella Bellisimo
A wonderful compellation of Italian classical music. I love to hear it while I'm driving; it makes road rage disappear.

Mascagni - Cavalleria Rusticana & Leoncavallo - Pagliacci / Pavarotti, Freni, Varady, Cappuccilli, Gavazzeni, ...

Pietro Mascagni, Ruggero Leoncavallo, ...

Decca, 1990

Outstanding
This CD-Box is outstanding. Here you will find Pavarotti at his best, surrounded by other great artists. The few minutes of "Ridi pagliaccio", by itself, is worth more than the full price. When I listen to this CD, or to "La Boheme", or "Turandot", by the same label ...
