| I heard this CD on a PBS pledge drive (it was a premium) and found myself loving every cut on it! I was in my car and just wanted to keep on driving and listening. This is by far my most-played CD - I've had to make it a weekend only listen to prevent getting burned out on it. HIGHLY recommend it. Even if you are unfamiliar with some of the pieces, you will quickly learn to love them. . . . I must end this review - I'm off to listen to the "flower duet" for the 100th time. . . |

| To my great surprise, in the last two decades of his life Solti turned into a marvelous Mozart interpreter. His '80's Figaro, and '90's Magic Flute and Cosi fan Tutte are among my favorite versions, Sir Georg's sometimes abrasive nervous energy (and scholarly use of reduced orchestral forces) makes for fantastically dramatic, anti-romantic readings. This requiem, recorded on the 200th anniversary of Mozart's death in St Stephen's cathedral in Vienna benefits from an awesome reverberant acoustic, ... Read More: |

| Bartoli's new CD is a great idea, no doubt about it. It is a most fine product with a very interesting idea behind it.
BUT, can a singer with a nice and small voice manipulate the truth just because she wants money? C'MON Cecilia!!! You can say that Malibran was a mezzo, you can say you like her debuted singing Rosina, you can use a 430 pitch to sing Amina or Norma but you can't deny the truth. Bartoli's voice is small...very nice with a wonderfull coloratura technic but small. ... Read More: |

| Cecilia Bartoli may not be the finest mezzo-soprano extant but few would doubt her exceptional artistry and professionalism. In "Se tu m'ami", she transforms simple, even primitive, melodies into beautiful, dare I say, rapturous arias, in the finest bel canto tradition. I now understand why Paisiello was a favourite of Buonaparte and why I should now acknowledge Vivaldi for his considerable versatility and creativity. The disc now occupies a top shelf in my CD rack. Bravissimo Cecilia. |

| One can't help but be impressed with the agility in Bartoli's voice. Vocal fireworks! And yet the "Mentre io godo...", "Caldo sangue" and "Lascia la spina..." are so sweet and calming. I consider this CD a must have! |

| To be honest I am not an admirer of Bartoli's voice and art. However her interpretation of these 'Composizioni da Camera' is excellent, very sensitive, in style and with deep emotion and feeling. It's the BEST performance I have ever heard of these songs.

| I saw the movie, which was excellent, and wanted the soundtrack. The music is beautiful, and it's so nice to hear the complete versions of songs that you only heard bits of in the movie. It's an excellent recording, crisp and clean. But the volume levels change so much that it's hard to listen to. Keep your stereo at a moderate volume for the loud parts, and you literally can't hear the quiet parts. Turn your stereo up for the quiet parts, and the loud parts rupture your eardrums. But if you like playing music ... Read More: |
