CD Reviews

From the heart singing

William Supon | 06/16/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is a singer to treasure. He has a beautiful and rich voice with a special timbre...but, there are other beautiful and rich voices. His real and deep appeal for me comes from his authentic and from-the-heart singing completely free of false emotionalisms. My impression is one of honesty of intention and realness of expression. He rivets attention and bathes the heart and ear in his artistry."

That vibrant voice gives you goose-skin-Quite outstanding

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This voice is so resonant and alive with ardour and passion that it is a real pleasure to end an evening with it. I also like Gobbi and Tibbet, but -wow, this is an exciting voice that hopefully will never be forgotten. I recomend this disc wholeheartedly."

One of the great voices

William Supon | Cedartown, GA USA | 05/14/2002

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This album is a real revelation. Lisitsian was mostly neglected since he was active during the closing days of Stalin's rule and the ensuing Cold War Years. But wow! What a voice! His Italian repertoire (in Russian!) is nice, but the real gems are the songs and Russian arias. The Venetian Guest's song is one of the great recordings of the century. And Pavel's "Yeletsky's Aria" from "The Queen of Spades" (Tchaikovskii) is worth the price of the album. Hvorostovsky's version is lovely, but listen to how Lisitsian caresses the first four notes--Ya vas lublyu (I love you). What a wondertul artist!"
