composed by Giacomo Puccini

There is no lack of stellar, gripping versions of La bohème on disc, and by most reckonings, this one stands toward the front of the pack. Having a cast of superstars is no guarantee that an opera recording is going to have the chemistry to knock you off your feet, but the performers here live up to the expectations that their fame raises.

composed by Giacomo Puccini

La bohème has always batted cleanup in the repertory, and never more so than at the beginning of the twenty-first century: crossover star Andrea Bocelli chose it for his first complete opera recording and director Baz Luhrmann tapped it for a much-hyped run on Broadway. Perhaps in the same can't-miss spirit, Decca released its La bohème: The Dream ...

composed by Georges Bizet

The days of stressing over which opera recordings to buy are over; they aren't a big invesment anymore, and in some cases they're practically giving them away. Here, EMI is offering its complete 1970 recording of Bizet's Carmen for the price of a budget single. Not bad. And since it doesn't come with a libretto, or any real documentation to speak ...

Just a generation ago, posterity hadn't quite made up its mind about Franco Corelli. Corelli was an operatic oddity, a self-trained singer with movie star looks who largely learned his craft from listening to old records of his predecessors. Corelli made up for what he may have lacked in conventionally trained, "beautiful" tone with an approach ...

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 ...
