"Serious classical singers should consider this item heaven sent. Made in 1992, it remains unsurpassed."
Buy this while it's STILL available !

"I bought this CD in June 1994. This is MARVELLOUS !! I love to sing the arias. Now there are quite many similar CDs, like: Opera Without Words, Puccini Without Words, Verdi Without Words, but those are arias "played in instruments" only, while this Karaoke Opera is the "really sung" arias, but in the other CD, the human voices are taken out. This is a better thing for accompaniment to your singing !You are an opera freek? You MUST buy one !"
Very useful and a lot of fun!

"Being an operatic tenor, I found these CDs to be very useful and a lot of fun. They contain several arias and a couple of duets for the professional or aspiring singer. "Nessun Dorma," the famous aria from Puccini's "Turandot," is the aria I've sung to most. Although the singers give admirable performances on the sung versions to serve as examples, the orchestrated versions are what make this a great purchase--they're very well done. Hopefully, the musicians and producers will create future CDs for each voice type (tenor, soprano, etc.). That would be an additional treat. Overall, this collection is the next best thing to having a personal orchestra."
Great practice CD!!!

"Very fine orchestral accompaniment. Only drawback: small libretto (no musical score)."
