 | Carreras · Domingo · Pavarotti: The Three Tenors in Concert / Mehta [Read More ...]
Description: Magic was created one starlit night in July 1990, when Luciano Pavarotti, Placido Domingo and José Carreras met onstage at the Baths of Caracalla in Rome and became the Three Tenors. They eschewed competitive instincts and cooperated in the spirit of mutual admiration to create... |
 | The Best of the Three Tenors [Read More ...]
Description: Back in 1990, three of the world's most celebrated tenors--namely, José Carreras, Plácido Domingo, and Luciano Pavarotti--combined forces to create the Three Tenors, now celebrated on a best-of CD. They gave their first concert in Rome. The event was recorded and went on to bec... |
 | The #1 Opera Album [Read More ...]

 | Puccini - Turandot / Sutherland · Pavarotti · Caballé · Ghiaurov · Krause · Pears · LPO · Mehta [Read More ...]
Description: Joan Sutherland is not usually considered a Puccini singer, and in fact she sang the role of Turandot only in the recording studio. But for that assignment she had exactly what was needed: a voice that seemed to have no upper limits and a personality that concealed vulnerability ... |
 | Orff: Carmina Burana [Read More ...]
love music:I was very happy with the response and it was in new condition as promised. |
 | Nessun Dorma ~ 20 Great Tenor Arias / Pavarotti, Carreras, Domingo, Bergonzi, Aragall, Björling, Di Stefano, Kollo, Corelli, Del Monaco... [Read More ...]
Beautiful CD...:What beautiful music. I'm new to opera, but the tracks on this CD are awesome. My only complaint is that Nessun Dorma is the last tract...so I start out there first. |
 | The 3 Tenors in Concert 1994 [Read More ...]
Description: It's not opera; it's not a pop concert; it's not Broadway. It's all of these and none of them. Once you accept the fact that this sequel to the original blockbuster concert recording is less about music and more about entertainment and the power of musical personalities, you c... |
 | The Original Three Tenors Concert [DVD Video] [Read More ...]
Original best-selling concert of 1990 plus the `making of' program The Impossible Dream available for the first time. |
 | The Only Classical CD You'll Ever Need! [Read More ...]
Review: Great For Newcomers:As an 18 year old univeristy student i would have to rate "The Only Classical Cd You'll Ever Need" as excellent. I dont know much about classical music but i was able to recognize almost every song and able to appreciate the music. Classical music is excellent... |
 | The Ultimate Puccini Collection [Read More ...]
Description: Ordinarily, it pays to be wary of collections such as these, which often promise a lot but deliver a mishmash of disconnected excerpts. This disc, however, is something of an exception: you really do get just about all of Puccini's best arias, which is possible, because he didn't... |
 | Amore: Romantic Italian Love Songs [Read More ...]
Description: From Calaf's "Nessun dorma" from Turandot, in which the singer exclaims his love for the ice princess and the victory he will have over her, through Lionel's realization that he will have a new life and be happy with Lady Harriet in Martha ("M'appari"), and on to Rodolfo's fallin... |
 | Mahler: Symphony No. 2 / Mehta, Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra [Read More ...]

 | Beethoven: The 5 Piano Concertos; Choral Fantasy [Read More ...]
Review: excellent beethoven cycle:Emanuel Ax really understands the poetic heart of this music. He highlights the dark melancholy of beethoven's music without ever becoming sacharine or sentimental. However, those looking for a barn burnig version of these concertos would do well to loo... |
 | Puccini and Pasta: A Romantic Italian Feast for Your Ears [Read More ...]
Review: Carerras and ladies are fabulous:Your listing for this CD leaves Jose Carerras off the performer list. These recordings were made when all these people were young, unsullied lyric artists, and are sensitive, powerful and masterful-as good as it gets. This CD is for anyone who lov... |
 | Essential Beethoven [Read More ...]
Review: not the best:i went searching for a Beethoven CD because i was lucky enough to find this wonderful Mozart one. But this Beethoven CD doesnt have the best performances. The most popular pieces are apparently played by beginners because the notes sound disjointed, as if they aren... |

 | The Very Best of Franco Corelli [Read More ...]
A Suitable Gift Idea:I bought this CD as a birthday present for my father and haven't actually heard the content myself. But because I ordered it, Amazon have prompted me to write a review. Certainly the feedback I'm getting is excellent and my Dad has derived hours of listening pleasure from it. |
 | Rimsky-Korsakov: Greatest Hits [Read More ...]
Greatest hits:Was a little disappointed with the CD. Was expecting more music that he is famous for, but instead, it had a number of little known works. |
 | 25 Concerto Favorites [Read More ...]
not too bad:For the price, you can't go wrong.*I had purchased an abundance of the "Favorites" collection some were better than others. This one was not too bad compared to the others, but not the best one.I was kind of perturbed when some same tracks on this CD were on another CD, and visa versa. |
