not to great.......2007-04-04

We were disappointed with this CD, but for the price I guess we can't expect much. I didn't care for the new style presentation of the songs. I like a more traditional rendering.

Not so bad, 100 tunes for 4$.......2005-06-22

I red the comments of two other people who have bought this 4 CD BOX SET and it is not really so bad. I will even add that there are some excellent tunes. However, I must agree with the fact that few tunes seem to have been recorded 40 or 50 years ago, mainly when you hear the scratches of an old turntable but it is just 2 or 3 tunes. Furthermore, if you do not know American music, it is a good BOX SET to buy if you consider that you received 4 CD for 4$ including 100 tunes. On these 4 CD, I have heard some orchestration that I have never heard before and I consider that they are different but interesting. Any way, after hearing these 100 tunes, you will say to yourself that you like this tune, this other tune, this other tune and so on and you will be able to buy a more expensive CD with the tunes that you like. However, I have bought many CDs in the last few weeks and as you know, there are always some tunes that you like and some tunes that you do not like on every CD that you will buy. So, don't buy it at 25$ but at 4 or 5$ dollars, it is a very good choice for 100 tunes.

You get what you pay for........2004-07-04

You get what you pay for. The singers put their own spin on the singing of each song. If you didn't hear the words you would not recognize some of them. Even some of the music sounds like a bad recording of music played on a turntable. Definitely not worth the price.

Now I know why there were no song samples to listen to ..........2004-07-04

I wish this review had been here when I was thinking of purchasing it. I guess you get what you pay for. If you are thinking of buying this, you are better off recording your own CDs (or at least buying one that you can listen to a sampling of the songs). This album includes songs that were mere recordings of the songs playing on an old record player. It's almost so unbelievable that it is funny.

Superb singing, superbly restored.......2003-09-08

This is, without question, the best restoration of monaural opera singing that I have ever heard, and it's one of my favorite collections of songs to boot. I've been looking for Leonard Warren on CD for years, and for the sea shanties in particular. Now I've finally found them, and they're the closest thing to a stereo recording of Leonard Warren that you will ever hear.

You will be astonished, not only with Mr. Warren's magnificent baritone, but with the incredible cleanliness of the disc. You won't hear a pop, scratch, or click in any of the sea shanties--remarkable, given that they were recorded in 1947. Yes, they are monaural, so they don't have as much "presence" as a stereo recording, but the orchestra, chorus, and Mr. Warren himself are as clear and as sonorous as if they were recorded today. Every note and nuance has been restored.

All historic CDs should be this good. Don't miss it!

Real Verdi singing.......2006-05-08

Thomas Hampson should be tied down and forced to listen to this great artist sing Verdi, THE WAY IT SUPPOSED TO BE SUNG. He would learn about phrasing, breath control, power, tone, artistry and drama all at the same time. Hampson can't carry Maestro Warren's scores for him.

Leonard Warren Had a Great Voice.......2005-11-02

I just read some reviews here that said the sound quality was not good on all the songs contained in this collection. Up to now I only have heard three of the songs on Disc 1...but they exemplify great singing. Those three songs from Pagliacci, The Barber of Seville, and La Traviata make this set worth buying in and of themselves. I read that Mr. Warren died at 49 years of age during an actual performance while singing on stage at The Metropolitan Opera House! That's quite a story! This set looks alittle expensive but I usually buy used---in this case $10 off the new price. I will listen some more to the rest of the set and ammend my review if necessary. But, for now, I'm very glad I purchased a sample of the beautiful voice and musical and dramatic artistry of Leonard Warren. Email:boland7214@aol.

A great collection.......2004-10-12

Leonard Warren was part of two great traditions: Firstly, from a tradition of American Baritones, featuring the likes of Robert Merrill, Cornell MacNeil, and more recently, Sherrill Milnes. Secondly, and sadly, from a tradition of opera singers who died when they should have been at the height of their powers: a list that includes Ettore Bastianini, Mario Lanza and countless others.

This collection shows the artistry of Leonard Warren. On the first cd, is the work most people would recognize Warren for, Rigoletto, Iago, with a few roles he didn't normally play thrown in, such as Escamillio, and most interestingly, Wolfram from Tannhauser.

The second cd is fun only if, like me, you like to hear opera singers singing, and singing well I might add, in a different medium. On this cd, Leonard Warren sings sea shanties, Irish songs, religious songs, all with that marvelous instrument of his. It was a side of Leonard Warren I Was excited to hear, to hear this American Baritone singing in English for once.

It's fantastic to see an artist of his calibre getting the recognition he deserves, and the two cds are an excellent purchase.

A magnificent collection.......2003-04-25

Warren was a superstar. His voice of supreme power and lovely sound was so versatile. He could sing Verdi like Verdi always wished his wonderful music to be sung and he could sing American songs with the patriotic passion they should convey. This collection is magnificent.

One of the Richest High Baritones of the Century..........2001-09-08

Leonard Warren possessed an unusual voice; a lyric baritone with the fullness of a powerful basso cantante. His high notes traveled into the upper baritone stratosphere, with a beauty matched to my ears only by Riccardo Stracciari... and he sang them with an ease most tenors can only envy. (And I love the tenor voice, don't make any mistake about that!) Listening to this two CD set brought one thing forth to my mind- Leonard Warren flat out enjoyed singing and he enjoyed spreading that fabulous feeling far and wide.
Listen to his renditions of the Battle Hymn of the Republic, the four sea shanties gracing this disc, and America the Beautiful. How many singers have ever rendered these old songs with such enthusiasm and beauty? To my ears, few can compare. A Little Bit of Heaven is a charming little piece of nostalgia for old Ireland, with perfectly placed high notes that provide a baritone counterpoint to the marvelous Scottish and Irish tenors that have graced our ears throughout this century. The sound on most of the songs is clear, showing off Warren's voice to his and the listeners' advantage.
Now we come to the opera arias and there's a rich assortment on display here. The Gounod Faust aria is from a rare Russian concert recording and is gorgeous, though it's accompanied by a piano. (Nothing against pianos, but I wanted the full orchestra. On other selections in the songs CD, the piano works superbly. Just a matter of personal taste.) The classic Scintille Diamant from Offenbach's Tales of Hoffman shows off his upper range, as he hits the high G-sharps with authority and ease. One of my favorites is the great aria from Verdi's MacBeth, in which Warren gets it all together. MacBeth's humanity is rarely on display in this version of the drama, but here it is in spades, along with his arrogance, fear, and anger at being attacked. "Birnam Wood on the march indeed!" The ease and fullness of the high notes, which are all in service to one of Warren's greatest characterizations, are a wonder.
Don't get the idea that only his high notes sounded good, or that Warren was a bellowing beast. He floated a pillowy pianissimo that has to be heard to be believed. The only other baritone voice that compares in this respect, of those whom I have heard, is Cornell MacNeil. I regret that there seems to be no great baritone duets these two great singers could have engaged in, like Verdi provided for bassos in Don Carlos. Does anyone out there remember either of the two great performances by Ghiaurov and Talvela of the King Philip/Grand Inquisitor duets under either Stein or Solti?
Back to Leonard Warren...
In terms of sound on the opera selections, the later, the better, though most of the pieces sound fine. I must agree a bit with an earlier reviewer in the case of Il Balen, from Verdi's Il Trovatore. The sound is fuzzy, bloated, and unclear, at least on my machine... but most all the others sound fine on the same machine. What happened? I had several versions of this great aria on LP, and I do remember one of them being well below the sonic standard of any of the others. The version on the old Cellini conducted complete recording with Bjoerling and Milanov sounded fine, as did the version he recorded with Leontyne Price and Richard Tucker. Why have this one, which does a disservice to the singer and the CD as a whole? And where is his incredible Per me ora fatale from the same opera? Even hearing a badly recorded version of Leonard Warren performing this aria would be a thrill. His singing of Il Balen is excellent- it just sounds foggy. Except for that, I would recommend this set to anyone interested in Warren's singing who might not have many of these recordings on CD. If you have virtually all of them, why bother with this set... unless there's a song you just cannot live without?
The Otello excerpts are exceptional, and there's the treats of his Nemico della patria (Andrea Chenier by Giordano) and Di Provenza (La Traviata) which are my favorite versions of these arias.
To those who might love the singing of Sherrill Milnes and Thomas Hampson, Leonard Warren should be heard and savored for what he was: an American original we can all be proud of.
