The Art of Beverly Sills more music like this

performed by Beverly Sills (soprano), Michel Trempont (vocals), Nicolai Gedda (tenor), Patricia Kern (vocals), Robert Lloyd (vocals), Stuart Burrows (vocals), Ambrosian Opera Chorus (choir, chorus), John Alldis Choir (choir, chorus)
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 ...

Airs d'opéras français (2003) more music like this

performed by Anne Gotkovski (mezzo-soprano), Maciej Kotlarski (tenor), Natalie Dessay (soprano), Choeur "Les Eléments" (choir, chorus), Orchestre National du Capitole de Toulouse, Michel Plasson (conductor)
composed by Ambroise Thomas, Charles Gounod, François-Adrien Boieldieu, Gaetano Donizetti, Gioachino Rossini, Jacques Offenbach, Jules Massenet

Natalie Dessay's first album of French arias was notable for its out-of-the-way modern selections, like excerpts from Poulenc's Les mamelles de Tirésias, Ravel's L'enfent et les sortileges, and Milhaud's Medée. Her follow-up effort, Airs d'opéras français (the same title as the first album, but in French this time), changes directions by moving ...

performed by Denyce Graves (mezzo-soprano), Monte Carlo Philharmonic Orchestra, Marc Soustrot (conductor)
composed by Ambroise Thomas, Camille Saint-Saëns, Charles Gounod, Edouard Lalo, Gaetano Donizetti, Georges Bizet, Hector Berlioz, Jules Massenet

Mezzo soprano Denyce Graves has not been enormously lucky in the realm of recording. Even as her star ascended through television exposure, sold-out recitals, and high-profile appearances in opera productions, for several years the compact disc front was strangely silent in representing Graves' artistry. In 1999 Graves signed an exclusive contract ...

Tales of Opera (2006) more music like this

performed by Simon Keenlyside (baritone), Munich Radio Orchestra, Ulf Schirmer (conductor)
composed by Ambroise Thomas, Francesco Cilea, Gioachino Rossini, Giuseppe Verdi, Jules Massenet, Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky, Richard Wagner, Ruggero Leoncavallo, Vincenzo Bellini, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Baritone Simon Keenlyside is a rarity in an era of focus on specific repertoires: a real operatic generalist whose interests and expertise range from the very earliest -- L'Orfeo -- to the newest -- premieres of Adès' The Tempest and Maazel's 1984. Tales of Opera is limited to just a fraction of that span, from the late eighteenth to the very ...

composed by Aaron Copland, Albert Hay Malotte, Ambroise Thomas, American Traditional, Amilcare Ponchielli, Camille Saint-Saëns, Christoph Willibald Gluck, Franz Schubert, Gaetano Donizetti, George Frederick Handel, Georges Bizet, Giacomo Meyerbeer, Gioachino Rossini

If you're looking for one album documenting the career of Marilyn Horne, this is the one to buy. Composed mostly of operatic excerpts from the 1960s and '70s, but also including some art song and concert selections from the 1980s, Decca's Just for the Record: The Golden Voice captures the sound and fury of Horne in her prime. Most everything Horne ...
