composed by Ambroise Thomas, Douglas S. Moore, Erich Wolfgang Korngold, Franz Lehár, Gaetano Donizetti, Gustave Charpentier, Jacques Offenbach, Jules Massenet, Richard Heuberger, Richard Strauss, Vincenzo Bellini, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

With the fine job that Beverly Sills has done navigating the treacherous waters of Fine Arts administration and as a gracious host on American public television, it is easy to forget that Sills was once the most popular operatic soprano in the United States. This is partly complicated in that, to date, "Bubbles" (as she is affectionately nicknamed ...

Soprano (2007) more music like this

Soprano Nicole Cabell, who won the 2005 BBC Cardiff Singer of the World competition, is a singer to watch. Her debut solo CD on Decca presents her in a wide variety of arias, from "Summertime" to Juliette's "Ah, Je veux vivre." Her voice is bright, and while she is capable of the required pyrotechnics, she has just a little edge that becomes more ...

An Italian Songbook (1997) more music like this

performed by Cecilia Bartoli (mezzo-soprano), James Levine (piano)
composed by Gaetano Donizetti, Gioachino Rossini, Vincenzo Bellini

For an operatic superstar, Cecilia Bartoli has invested an unusual amount of energy into the musicological pursuit of researching (and then performing) obscure repertoire, particularly of the Italian Baroque and Romantic eras. In this release, she brings to light songs by Vincenzo Bellini, Gaetano Donizetti, and Gioachino Rossini, composers known ...

composed by Gaetano Donizetti, Gioachino Rossini, Vincenzo Bellini

Giovanni Battista Rubini (1794-1854) was the leading Italian tenor of his generation, during the time Rossini, Donizetti, and Bellini were creating some of their greatest works, and all the selections on this album are from operas that were either written especially for him, or in which he performed. Rubini, who was hailed as "king of the tenors," ...

performed by Franco Corelli (tenor), Michele Vilma (mezzo-soprano), Mirella Freni (soprano), Nicolai Gedda (tenor), Stefania Malagu (mezzo-soprano), La Scala Theater Chorus (choir, chorus)
composed by Charles Gounod, Francesco Cilea, Gaetano Donizetti, Georges Bizet, Giacomo Puccini, Giuseppe Verdi, Jules Massenet, Pietro Mascagni, Vincenzo Bellini, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Mirella Freni was one of the most consistently excellent presences on the operatic stage and on recording for more than 30 years; she sang Mozart, Puccini, and everything in between as if she were tailor made for it. That ability to lend herself to the specific requirements of different composers and styles, and the distinctive beauty of her voice ...

composed by Vincenzo Bellini

This recording of La Sonnambula is attractive (and significant) for a number of reasons. It's the first to use the critical edition of the score by Alessandro Roccatagliati and Luca Zoppelli, to which some music has been restored and which has corrected the orchestration and restored the original keys of various numbers for which transposition has ...

composed by Charles Gounod, George Frederick Handel, Georges Bizet, Giacomo Puccini, Gioachino Rossini, Giuseppe Verdi, Gustave Charpentier, Jules Massenet, Vincenzo Bellini

Diva is an entertaining and attractively packaged compilation of Angela Gheorghiu's EMI recordings made between 1996 and 2002. All of the selections have appeared on previous releases, but some of them only in the context of complete operas. As a one-disc snapshot of Gheorghiu's career so far, Diva does pretty well, and it would make a good first ...
