1.The Most Famous Opera AriasThe Most Famous Opera Arias
from EMI Classics
Price: $3.47

Customer Review:
The conductor and the singers can make a beautiful song the opera that everyone jeers and hates. To have a Russian singer doing o mio babbino caro is just plain silly...give the woman a break and play something from Russian opera...give a beautiful melodic aria to a lyrical singer like Caballe...boo... more info

by Giacomo Puccini
Price: $21.97

Customer Review:
Although I grew up with many of M.Callas recordings, it wasn't until very recently that I listened in full to her Mimi, a role she never sang onstage, unfortunately, and only learned for this recording. There are many really wonderful recordings and performances of this popular opera and of this... more info

by Maria Grazia Ciferri
Price: $23.98

Customer Review:
There is no reason to expect consensus on a work as richly and as often recorded as "Butterfly," but this 1957 recording (from what would become the golden era of RCA's opera catalog) is arguably one of the most complete interpretations of the work. By "complete" I refer not to the musical score... more info

from Testament UK
Price: $52.98

Customer Review:
Another long-awaited release from the late Anna Moffo. This 2 cds set of extended exerpts from Massenet's Manon and Puccini's Manon Lescaut was originally recorded in 1963 when Moffo's voice was at its loveliest. She is absolutely delightful in both Manon, especially Massenet, and makes one regrets... more info

by Giacomo Puccini

Customer Review:
Anna Moffo made so many lovely recordings in the 60's before her sudden vocal decline and hers is nearly always my preferred version, despite strong competition, of such operas as "La Traviata", "Luisa Miller" and, here, "La Rondine". She is beautifully matched with the aristocratic baritone Mario... more info

I grew up with this recodirng on cassette and was delighted to find it available in CD - be sure to catch the great sounds of the exploding oven and the children shouting out when they come to life, great details other recordings don't have - not to mention terrific signing by all the cast.

by Giuseppe Verdi
Price: $14.97

Customer Review:
Now that this is available in the lower-priced brown-wrapped version (shades of an old LP or even 78 sleeve), expect no less in this superb recording. The only sacrifice is the lack of a libretto -- but that's available from EMI at its website. And at this incredibly low price of about $14 (same as... more info

Customer Review:
I am a great lover of opera, and EMI's new releases seem a good value. I love "The Marriage of Figaro", and I jumped to buy this product. I am thoroughly impressed with this production.

from RCA

Customer Review:
An absolutely gorgeous, heart-breaking performance by Anna Moffo of ten of the most beautiful songs in the repertoire. Her breath control is astonishing. Catapults to the top of the list of my favorite CD's. Wonderful to see it reissued after a lapse of 44 years. Sound quality is still first rate.

I bought this because I wanted the cheapest CD that had Anna Moffo's incomparably superb performance of Vocalise.

Customer Review:
This is a relatively old recording (early l960's) with what when then a cast of RCA reliables - Tucker and Merrill - and Anna Moffo(who had all too brief a career). It still has wonders in it. Moffo, though her voice is a bit too small, is intense about the text and its meaning, lyrical and moving.... more info

"Rigoletto" has been well served on disc; you can go right back to the 1950 RCA Victor set with Leonard Warren, or the 1954 Cetra set with Taddei (see my review) and be very satisfied both with the sound and the superlative performances. I do not find that more recent recordings reach that standard... more info

Customer Review:
Repeated evocation of the word "perfect" in descriptions of this recording convinced me to buy it, and even in the midst of such lofty praise, I was not disappointed. To the contrary; Capriccio is amongst the most incisive and beautiful operas ever crafted, combining the intelligence and... more info

As the other reviewer noted, I bought my copy of this after hearing someone else's and I had to have one of my own. A great gift, too. We gave this to people for Christmas one year with a couple of DVDs of the films (Prizzi's Honor among them). Highly recommended.

This conductor slurs all his recordings. Everyone one. Including this Mozart opera.

Turandot had not been performed at the Met since Jeritza and Lauri-Volpi in the late 20's or early 30's until this revival with Nilsson and Corelli.

Customer Review:
"The Bell Telephone Hour" ran from 1959 through 1968. I remember watching many of the programs in that time. A number of these featured operatic performance, some of which are captured on this DVD. As a result, this work is a nice historical time capsule of some of the best singers of that era. As a... more info
