CD ReviewsLa Divina caetano347 | Rio de Janeiro, Brasil | 11/24/2003 (5 out of 5 stars) "For those who can only judge Callas' voice, any recording can be very disapointing. To enjoy listening to her voice, one must be aware of her work as a dramatic performance rather than a technically perfect and beautiful voice. She sang with her soul, her heart and all the deep feelings a human being can experience and this led her to the top of the opera world, although her voice never achieved beauty and evenness as it would be expected of an opera Diva. Listening to Callas is for those who really want to experience a deep and strong experience within themselves. If you want a beautiful voice, try Tebaldi, Mirella Freni or so many others who did achieved voice perfection -- but could not touch one's heart as deep as Callas did." Overlooked vs #1 & #3. A must CD. Dr. Alan D. Kardoff | Palm Bay, FL USA | 07/25/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "I had heard a lot about the stories of Maria Callas as cited in reviews for La Davina 1. I saw La Davina 2 on auction. My heart beat faster. I won the bid. When this CD arrived I was even more eager to play it. The cover is more beautiful than its picture. Callas's voice cannot be adequately described either. I did not give the CD a thorough studious listen like other reviewers. I played it three times while surfing. Each time I became more entranced. This CD is now on a lamp atop my CPU. It has twelve CD slots. Callas has one. Her voice is so clear, crisp, moving and meaningful that regardless of the song (track) selected, a listener will hear and feel true joy.This review is not as sophisticated as many others. I am writing it to create some awareness of La Divina 2. Callas is not SECOND to any singer. The ADD mono stereo has been boosted. The CD challenges my Astec Lansing speakers. EMI has a winner.Opera and classic music lovers might start their journey with La Divina 2. I know of few finer recordings. This CD gets 5 1/2*. Bravo to Callas, EMI and supporting conductors Tullio Serafin, Georges Petres, Nicola Resecigno and Frano Ghione. While dated 1993 the sound is 2000 quality.Add this to your collection before the supply runs out." A brilliant recital! reff | 02/07/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) "La Divina means "The divine one"!! The greatest title ever given to a soprano. And only Callas deserved it! An amazing recital from beginning to the end. My first Callas-CD, I made an excellent choice!"
