CD ReviewsDame Kiri Shines as Always Maya | Florida | 08/08/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) "In a compilation of arias from opera roles that "might have been", Dame Kiri shows us that she could have expanded her repertoire much beyond what she actually did. Most of these arias have been sung and recorded by Dame Kiri on other recordings, and in concert videos. Some arias are from operas she did perform.(Die Zauberflote) Her clear, beautiful tone stands alone in the realm of the soprano. Some may sing for a few years, but not over thirty and do it so very well. The portions of the DVD were well chosen. This mostly long forgotten Mozart concert video was out of print and a gem. The use of "Exultate Jubilate", "Porgi Amor", and the "Dove Sono" personify Dame Kiri's affinity with the work of Mozart, and bring new life to an old concert. The only downside is that there were only the three pieces on the entire DVD. Overall, the CD includes all of the composers Dame Kiri is most associated with, and a few she is not as much known for. I highly recommend it to anyone who is an admirer of the great soprano. " Memories refreshed Barbel Costa | 05/30/2007 (4 out of 5 stars) "I listened and was again enchanted by Kiri's voice. She would have been the Anna Netrebko of her time. I did experience her in 2 live concerts and have vivid memories how beautiful she looked matching her singing."
