CD Reviews

Excellent-a wonderful compilation CD.
Richard D. Cappetto | Moodus, CT United States | 05/19/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is a wonderful sounding CD, much better then some of the other CD compilations I have of Luciano. The remastering is excellent. Also the song selection is wonderful, a fine collection of Opera and Italian classics. Highlights are Caruso, Torna a Surriento, Mattinata, O Sole Mio (does anyone do it better?), Una Furtiva Lagrima, Dalla Sua Pace and Nessun Dorma (almost rattles the speakers, but is mastered just right to understand the power of Luciano's voice without distortion). Heck, every song on hear is a highlight, its a great collection and sounds wonderful; Fantastic. It's a must have for any Pavarotti fan."
Okay so track #1 aside...

"I got this as a gift last Christmas and just got around to writing a review. To start off with, let me say that I think Pavarotti is the greatest tenor ever. Period. His command of his voice (breath control, relaxation, etc.) were absolutely flawless, and no he never shouted (except when he was getting old and losing his voice...maybe), cause I have never heard anyone shout with vibrato. Anyways, yes I have heard better accompanyments than Caruso's (track #1) on a certain children's show that will remain unnamed but it features a large purple dinosaur, but that doesn't ruin the entire CD for me like it did for the other reviewers. Let's face it the rest of the CD is Pavarotti classics. You won't find a better Nessun Dorma anywhere. His La Danza is wonderful, his L'elisir is legendary and La Boheme's Rodolfo is one of, if not his truly signature role. As for the Neapolitan songs, you can't criticize him for those. It's no different than Kathleen Battle throwing in a few spirituals on her CDs. Yes, I wish there were more arias on the CD (Ah! Mes amis for instance) but still was not dissappointed by this CD at all. Buy it!"
