La Bohčme: The Dream Cast [Highlights] (2002) more music like this

composed by Giacomo Puccini

La bohčme 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 bohčme: The Dream ...

performed by Anne Sofie von Otter (alto), David Daniels (counter tenor), Dawn Upshaw (soprano), Elina Garanca (mezzo-soprano), Emmanuelle Haďm (harpsichord), Felicity Lott (soprano), Ian Bostridge (tenor), Ildebrando D'Arcangelo (bass), José van Dam (baritone)
composed by Antonio Vivaldi, Charles Gounod, Christoph Willibald Gluck, Claudio Monteverdi, Gaetano Donizetti, George Frederick Handel, Giacomo Puccini, Gioachino Rossini, Giuseppe Verdi, Hector Berlioz, Henry Purcell, Jacques Offenbach, Jean-Philippe Rameau

This two-disc set is a sampler of operatic singers from the corporately related Virgin Classics and EMI labels, and like most such samplers it delivers a good deal less than it promises. The marketing is scattershot, for one thing: the two-disc set purports to offer both the "new generation" of singers and "greatest arias" -- whether of these ...

composed by Jules Massenet

Antonio Pappano leads a sensuous and dramatically taut reading of Werther on EMI's reissue of its 1999 all-star release. Werther is one of the most intimate and interior of operas, and Pappano successfully captures the mood of the protagonist's turmoil that constitutes its real drama. The leads are in strong voice and make dramatic impressions as ...

composed by Gaetano Donizetti

This recording presents a welcome opportunity to hear Donizetti's dramatic masterpiece in its French incarnation of 1839, which, although popular for many years (and the version first heard in America in 1841), has largely fallen out of the repertory. It also allows its two stars, Natalie Dessay and Roberto Alagna, to weigh in on a standard work ...

performed by Roberto Alagna (tenor), Thomas Hampson (baritone), London Symphony Chorus (choir, chorus), London Symphony Orchestra, Antonio Pappano (conductor)
composed by Giacomo Puccini

Rare is the album that features works by Puccini that do not include anything selected from his operas. Indeed, this compact disc showcases three works that may be unfamiliar to lovers of La bohčme. The first work featured, Preludio Sinfonico, was completed when the composer was just 18 years of age, and bears distinction as Puccini's premiere ...

composed by Alfredo Catalani, Charles Gounod, Gaetano Donizetti, George Grigoriu, Giacomo Puccini, Giuseppe Verdi, Jules Massenet

The quality of an anthology always depends on the source recordings a label has to choose from. In the case of Angela Gheorghiu, both Decca and EMI have plenty of good material -- so much so that both released compilations in 2004, each of which is an excellent capsulation of Gheorghiu's art and career, and neither of which duplicates the other's ...
