Cecilia Bartoli: An Italian Songbook - 6310

Product description Rather than a collection of standard favorites, this recital contains rarely recorded songs by Bellini, Donizetti and Rossini. Genre: Classical Music Media Format: Compact Disk Rating: Release Date: 16-SEP-1997 Amazon.com Review The Italian mezzo-soprano Cecilia Bartoli is one of the most charming and talented singers to appear on the scene in recent years, and this collection of Italian songs by three great opera composers--Bellini, Donizetti, and Rossini--is a most deserving bestseller. There are many small pleasures in the selections, which reflect the bel canto predilections of their authors, and Bartoli renders them artfully. Some will be familiar even to casual listeners (Rossini's La Danza, the famous tarantella); others will be new to most, but equally deserving of a hearing. The sensitive and skillful accompaniment is by conductor-pianist James Levine. --Sarah Bryan Miller
