performed by Alfredo Kraus (tenor), Carlo Bergonzi (vocals), Carlo del Monte (vocals), Christa Ludwig (vocals), Danielle Millet (vocals), Eberhard Wächter (baritone), Edita Gruberová (vocals), English Chamber Orchestra (chamber ensemble), Ernest Blanc (vocals)
composed by Gaetano Donizetti, Georges Bizet, Giacomo Puccini, Giuseppe Verdi, Léo Delibes, Richard Strauss, Richard Wagner, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

EMI's The Most Famous Opera Duets is a decent collection of excerpts that delivers on enough of its promise to be forgiven its superlative title. A few notable blockbusters are missing, like "O soave fanciulla" from La bohème and the evening prayer from Hansel and Gretel, but overall the collection covers its territory well -- from the famous ...

composed by Richard Strauss

Decca's Elektra is a remarkable account of the opera. Recorded in 1968, produced by John Culshaw with an all-star cast, this performance captures the opera's brutality and atmosphere of nearly uninterrupted hysteria. Georg Solti conducts the Vienna Philharmonic, one of the great Strauss orchestras, in a searing reading of the frenzied score. Solti ...

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 Richard Strauss

Though there are good reasons for hearing other recordings of Der Rosenkavalier -- the endlessly attractive 1954 Decca recording with Reining, Jurinac, Gueden, and Weber with Erich Kleiber leading the Vienna Philharmonic or the luminously appealing 1994 DG recording with Lott, von Otter, Bonney, and Moll with Carlos Kleiber, Erich's son, leading ...

After discs for Ondine and Virgin, Latvian mezzo soprano Elina Garanca made her Deutsche Grammophon debut in late 2006 with this disc called Aria Cantilena after the first movement of Villa-Lobos' Bachianas brasileiras No. 5. For the most part, the then-30-year-old Garanca stuck with the lighter end of the French and Italian repertoire -- Massenet ...

composed by Richard Strauss

Richard Strauss' early operatic success with Salome helped secure the composer a distinguished place in history. Although the lustful Salome had been portrayed before, it wasn't until Strauss expounded upon Oscar Wilde's play that this story became so massively successful. The popularity that the opera enjoyed has only seemed to grow, and a number ...
