Rapture: Opera's Most Heavenly Moments

Rapture-Opera's Most Heavenly Moments

Deutsche Grammophon, 2002

Opera's Most Heavenly Moments Indeed
I have more experience with other genres of music, but am interested in basically all kinds. I have been collecting CDs for nearly 2 decades but had no Opera in my collection. I did a little research and arrived at a conclusion. If I wanted the most and best Opera ...

Tuscany: A Romantic Journey

Eduardo di Capua, Alfredo Catalani, ...

Avalon, 2005

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 Opera Album

Maria Callas, Placido Domingo, ...

EMI Classics, 2002

Wonderful selections sung by the best
I am not an expert at opera but have come to appreciate it in recent years. This is a 2-disc album that you fully get your money's worth, as it is filled with some of the very best favorites from the world of opera, performed by the best opera singers of our time. I ...

The #1 Opera Album

Giacomo Puccini, Giuseppe Verdi, ...

Decca, 2001

The best gift ever.
I purchased this CD as a birthday gift for my sister. Because I personally know nothing about opera, I didn't know how to buy a single opera for her, or even which one she would like if I did know how to get it. So I settled on this "sampler" style Cd, and she just ...

Very Nice!!
This Roberto Carlos Cd is very good. My mom is learning spanish and when we got this Cd it has helped her.

Bel Canto

Bellini, Donizetti, ...

Deutsche Grammophon, 2009

Beautiful Bel canto singing
I disagree with another reviewer who remarked on the lack of drama in this material. The Bel canto style had its peak of popularity in the Rossini, Bellini and Donzinetti era, where singing is less about drama and content, and all about the art of beautiful singing, ...

En Vivo

Roberto Carlos

Sony U.S. Latin, 2008

Roberto Carlos at the top of his game
I travelled from Massachusetts to Miami to see this show, along with a friend and my brother who lived in Florida at the time and I did not regret it. Roberto Carlos is still at the top of his game. Vocally, he is still in great form. There is really not much else ...

Arthaus Musik, 2009

A great Chanel biography and history of fashion
This biography of Chanel and history of fashion was filmed in 1988 with a young Karl Lagerfeld. Karl Lagerfeld is interviewed throughout as this was created a few years after he took over the House of Chanel. The film is done in fashion biography documentary style ...

Verdi: Aida [Blu-ray]

Violeta Urmana, Roberto Alagna

Decca, 2008

Great production - most enjoyable
Aida has been a favourite of mine for over 50 years but had not been looked at for awhile. So it was a great pleasure to reacquaint myself with the music. This production, filmed by Zeffirelli, is a sumptuous one although the frequent dissolves into out of focus ...

H.R. Pufnstuf - The Complete Series

Hilarious
This video is exactly what I was looking for. It brings back all my childhood memories.

Dos Pajaros de un Tiro

Joan Manuel Serrat, Joaquín Sabina

Sony International, 2008

use of language
I am more familiar with Serrat than Sabina" work, but together they are wonderful, more than songs they are poetry with music, I loved this DVD, very well done and the musicians are #1, enjoy !!

Serenade

Katherine Jenkins, Georges Bizet, ...

Decca, 2009

Not Just Another Pretty Face
I will admit that when I first saw the track listing for this CD, I felt disappointed. "Come on!" I thought, "Katherine should be more original than this! Practically every soprano records `O Mio Babbino Caro' at one point or another, and here are two common songs from ...

Verdi: Simon Boccanegra [DVD Video]

Alexandru Agache, Kiri Te Kanawa

Decca, 2007

Te Kanawa at her peak
This lavish production from the ROHCG beautifully preserves the Amelia of Kiri Te Kanawa from her long best period. As usual, she is stunning to look at but that shouldn't detract from one of the most beautiful voices of the recent years. The entire cast is superb. ...
