A great intro to classical music
Review of The Most Famous Opera Arias by  operalover2000

Advantages: All good strong performances with some absolutely glorious
Disadvantages: Some of the arias do not show the singers at their best

...- so often it is sung in an overblown and rather silly way - that is not the case here - he is more stylish and smooth than Pavarotti and Domingo and I think he is slghtly more convincing as the Duke who after all sneaks about the place sweet-talking ladies. He has exciting highnotes as well. The sound is good in this version. Gianni Schicchi, opera O mio babbino caro Composed by Giacomo Puccini Performed by London Philharmonia Orchestra with Ghena Dimitrova Conducted by Anton Guadagno >Maybe not the first version that I would choose for this aria. Dimitrova's voice is a little fierce compared to say Mirella Freni and Angela Gheorghiu in this music but she does have a lovely big strong instrument and as a sheer piece of singing this is good work. Just maybe doesnt sound like a young girl - needs a sweeter voice for that... Read review

Review of O Mio Babbino Caro: Famous Soprano Arias from Italian Opera - Various Artists by  grafter123

Advantages: Beautiful music and vocals, classic tracks,
Disadvantages: Specialised taste.

...Hubby and I both have very eclectic taste when it comes to music. Our music collection has rag-time Jazz, post war Blues, early Dylan, Franz Ferdinand, Meatloaf, Pavarotti, Bob Marley, Santana and much, much more. You get the picture, the whole range collected over forty odd years. Although we have always had some classical music, this liking is something which has developed more with age. At one time, Hubby in particular, could not stand, and I quote 'one of those screeching females', namely a soprano. So I was somewhat amazed when he brought home 'O Mio Babbino Caro' which is a collection of famous soprano arias from Italian Operas. I was even more surprised when he admitted that the title track could just about reduce him to tears, although I can see how it could. O Mio Babbino Caro.(My dear Father) This, the title track, is...

ARIA
Review of GayMega Productions - Aria by  Annochie

Advantages: Great Opera with Techno
Disadvantages: Miss the orchestra

...I was recently in a local music outlet here in the Los Angeles,CA area where I heard the sounds of angelic angels playing through their speaker system. When I asked about the music I was told it was an accompliation called ARIA. I asked if they had another copy of this unusual accompliation. I was told, they had 2 more copies left. I then purchased the CD. I was surprised to find out the CD was produced by a company in West Hollywood, CA in conjunction with a British recording studio. The CD has 14 tracks, 3 tracks in english, 3 tracks in french, 3 tracks in german, 3 tracks in latin, and 2 tracks in italian. The whole CD are Aria's from the major Verdi Operetta's, but the twist is that the production company has the opera's set to new age and techno music, a far cry from the orchestral music we all love to here. The 2 women on the CD... Read review
