Gerard souzay is amazing

pepperminta | CA | 03/27/2004

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This album is amazing. Gerard Souzay has one of the most soothing tones - when he sings it isn't harsh at all. my favorite is "apres un reve" - an absolutely gorgeous song. There are english translations for the french and the lyrics are beautiful. This is a classic album for anyone - esp. someone studying opera."
