Soprano Nicole Cabell, who won the 2005 BBC Cardiff Singer of the World competition, is a singer to watch. Her debut solo CD on Decca presents her in a wide variety of arias, from "Summertime" to Juliette's "Ah, Je veux vivre." Her voice is bright, and while she is capable of the required pyrotechnics, she has just a little edge that becomes more ...

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 ...

composed by Charles Gounod, George Frederick Handel, Georges Bizet, Giacomo Puccini, Gioachino Rossini, Giuseppe Verdi, Gustave Charpentier, Jules Massenet, Vincenzo Bellini

Diva is an entertaining and attractively packaged compilation of Angela Gheorghiu's EMI recordings made between 1996 and 2002. All of the selections have appeared on previous releases, but some of them only in the context of complete operas. As a one-disc snapshot of Gheorghiu's career so far, Diva does pretty well, and it would make a good first ...

The Perfect Opera does not live up to its name (what could?), but it contains a surprisingly rich and offbeat selection of performances. How often does an aria sampler include Maria Callas singing Carmen, Fritz Wunderlich singing Handel, and singers, such as Fiorenza Cossotto and Pier Miranda Ferraro, whose names do not often appear on these ...

Montserrat Caballé is best known on record through her early, made-for-RCA/Victor output, and her recording activity is heavily invested in Italian opera. Therefore, La Superba's sole turn for Deutsche Grammophon from 1971, Montserrat Caballé Singt Französiche Opernarien, as reissued in its "Spotlight" series, comes as a bit of surprise -- all of ...
