Pavarotti's Opera Made Easy-My Favourite Opera For Children
Robert Massard, Sherrill Milnes, ...

Decca, 1994

Fun, accessible opera for you and your child to enjoy
I bought this CD for my then 3 year old son. He loved it then because it was the "Bugs Bunny" music he was familiar with from the cartoons. He listened to it for awhile then we put it away. After he turned 4, he said to me one day -- let's listen to opera, and now ...
  
  











  



  
Georg Solti: The Maestro
Georg Solti, Chung

Decca, 2007

Sensational Solti
These four DVDs offer a direct document of the performance persona of one of the most influential conductors of recent times. For some who did not have an opportunity to attend a live concert with Solti as conductor, these discs offer as close as a first-hand ...
  
  











  



  
Luciano Pavarotti: The Best (Farewell Tour)
Eric Garrett, Rolando Panerai, ...

Decca, 2005

Wonderful, of course!
I don't know of too many that would give fewer than five stars to Luciano Pavarotti. What an amazing voice...we are fortunate to have been part of one man's unbelievable talent!
  
  











  



  
Wagner - Der Ring des Nibelungen (Ring Cycle) / Sir Georg Solti
Sir Georg Solti, Wiener Philharmoniker, ...

Decca, 1997

Brunnhilde Was Not Happy
I love this set and wouldn't be without it and think the remastering is an improvement over the first generation CD release. It is somewhat interesting that Decca hasn't re-mastered it further. Anyway, interesting that Birgit Nilsson was never really that happy ...
  
  











  



  
Nessun Dorma ~ 20 Great Tenor Arias / Pavarotti, Carreras, Domingo, Bergonzi, Aragall, Björling, Di Stefano, ...
Georges Bizet, Gaetano Donizetti, ...

Decca, 1998

Driving and Singing
This is a wonderful CD to sing along with in "rotten" traffic. All of a sudden, it just dosen't matter that much. If it can do this for me, it will help even the most "miserable" (in thought, word and deed), driver. Worth having in the car.
  
  











  



  
Renee Fleming: By Request
Vincenzo Bellini, Alfredo Catalani, ...

Decca, 2003

Just plain great!
This is my favorite album!!! I use it to mellow out, or just listen to her magnificent voice. I've passed on a few of her other albums, but if I lost this one, I'd buy it over and over again.
  
  











  



  
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 ...
  
  











  



  
Essential Verdi - 40 of His Greatest Masterpieces (2 CD Set)
Giuseppe Verdi, Alberto Erede, ...

Decca, 2001

Just Stunning!
In my opinion this recording is stunning. I am not usually a fan of compilations in classical music, as they're usually watered down representations made under the presumption that the listener would find the full-blown version intimidating or boring. This one, ...
  
  











  



  
Dvorak: Symphony No. 9 "From the New World"
Antonin Dvorak, Sir Georg Solti, ...

Decca, 1990

No Homesick Symphony, This
Any great piece of music lends itself to different, sometimes radically different, interpretations. Dvorak's "New World" is a case in point, but especially so since music critics and others in the know have differing perspectives on the work. I've heard it called by ...
  
  











  



  
Essential Beethoven
Hans Sotin, Martti Talvela, ...

Decca, 2001

Wonderful selections
My kids and I have really enjoyed this CD. This is a great collection of music with high quality performances.
  
  











  



  
Amor--Opera's Great Love Songs
Georges Bizet, Gaetano Donizetti, ...

Decca, 1998

If you are unsure about opera, this is where to begin
Many people are turned off of opera because of the nature of the beast - unknown tongue, the continual singing and particularly the sopranos whose voices are as piercing as they are diffdicult to understand. These selections are ravishing in their beauty. It has been ...
  
  











  



  
Solti: Orchestra!
Sir Georg Solti, Dudley Moore

Decca, 2007

Superb
Dating from 1991 this marvellous TV series looks at the Orchestra with the help of the Sir Georg Solti and Dudley Moore. These two are an inspired pairing as many people never realised just how good a musician Dudley Moore was and outside of this TV series Sir Georg ...
  
  











  



  
Carmen / Troyanos, Domingo, van Dam, Te Kanawa; Sir Georg Solti
Georges Bizet, London Philharmonic Orchestra, ...

Decca, 1990

Fast and "Boomy"
I've given up on the notion that there's only "one" best recording of an opera. Certainly, there are classics, e.g. Callas' Tosca. Still, there is so much variation in opera in terms of multiple singers, an orchestra, etc. that it's hard to tell someone they should ...
  
  











  



  
Renée Fleming - Signatures ~ Great Opera Scenes / Sir Georg Solti
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky, ...

Decca, 1997

Amazing!!
This may be one of my favorite albums of all time. Renee Fleming is of course amazing with Mozart...but there are other gems on this album. The scene from Otello is truly astounding!! My personal favorite on this album is the Embroidery Scene from Peter Grimes by ...
  
  











  



  
Mozart: Le nozze di Figaro / Te Kanawa, Popp, Ramey, Solti [Highlights]
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Georg Solti, ...

Decca, 1990

The best Figaro on record!
This is a recording that ranks with the greatest. The sparkling, crisp overture and a remarkable cast, this is one for every classical music lover's library. Solti conducted with his usual unerring command, and you will never hear a better Countess or Figaro than Te ...
