2 out of 5 stars Certainly not the best Fleming.......2007-02-02

I do not understand why this disc chooses to record the 'remote' Mozart arias, No. 1.
I do not understand why Ms. Fleming failed to impress listeners as a Mozartian in this disc, No. 2.
A singer of her reputation should be more discerning in her discography.
Not that the rarer or earlier Mozart is any less good than Cosi fan tutte or Don Giovanni.
But if you have listened to recordings of all Mozart's earlier opera (to which I have), you would be bound to admit that Ms. Fleming did not fare well in those pieces she had chosen here. And even in her Donna Elvira on this disc, she is not in best form.

4 out of 5 stars Mozart, Mozart, Mozart!.......2006-05-22

'Visions of Love, Mozart Arias' sung by one of our leading operatic sopranos, Renee Fleming, is a nice listen more for the fact that it is Mozart than the fact that it is being done by Renee Fleming. But then, if you happen to be a Renee Fleming fan, you can have your cake and eat it too.

I confess I have been influenced in my overall rating by one of the other reviewers, who obviously has much more experience with recordings of Mozart arias. But from my point of view, someone who just likes to listen to female operatic and art song vocals, this is a great change from the recordings of French chansoms and German Lieder, which all start to sound like variations of Shubert's 'Ave Maria'.

Here, we get the orchestrations of that all time greatest master of the 18th century opera, the utterly incomparable Wolfgang, for those of us who don't have the patience to sit through, or even do garden weeding through a complete performance of Don Giovanni (although I am partial to complete recordings of Die Zauberflote, The Magic Flute).

This is probably not the best album with which to sample Fleming for the first time. As this is the first of her albums I have reviewed, I'll let you know as soon as I find it.

Meanwhile, if you can get this one at a good discount, you will enjoy the Mozart!

5 out of 5 stars a pleasure.......2003-07-03

Her "turtledovish",creamy, slightly gruffy voice is perfect in Mozart. All are very lovey/dovey romantic songs. I Love the repetive nature of vocal lines in Mozart's music. It's very different from later Italian composers. This music is more charming and sometimes meant to be a little comical. Thay all have a certain rhythm pattern, typical of Mozart. After a while you start to pick up on it and get the gist of the style. Then you can hear an unknown piece and single it out as Mozart. She does an incredible effort at maintaining that creamy richness, roundness, and that beauty of tone that is so necessary in Mozart ,when she is singing at high tessitura or when she is singing in pure head voice or "in the mask". I think Mozart vocal music is the most difficult to do, but also the most fun.

Renee Fleming's Mozart CD is a collection of beautiful arias, gorgeously sung. Rare Mozart gems are presented along with more popular arias from FIGARO, DON GIOVANNI, DIE ENTFUHRUNG, and DIE ZAUBERFLOTE -- a wise programming choice on Fleming's part, since EVERYONE sings the popular arias. Fleming's lush yet agile tone is perfect for the long lines of "L'amero, saro costante" from IL RE PASTORE and the similar "Geme la torturelle" from LA FINTA GIARDINIERA. She has the coloratura flexibility for "Ach, ich leibte" from DIE ENTUHURUNG and the amazing "Lievi son," an aria Mozart wrote when he was only sixteen years old! It is also interesting to hear Fleming give an outstanding performance of Donna Elvira's "Mi Tradi," since her more usual role in DON GIOVANNI is Donna Anna. But my favorite track is the first one, "Deh vieni, non tardar" from FIGARO; I believe this is one of the very finest pieces of singing Fleming has ever recorded.

    3 out of 5 stars Tha ladies outshine the guys on this one!.......2005-08-02

    After listening to the complete recording I have to say that Gruberova, Popp, and Mathis give a splendid performance of this Mozart work! All three female soloists are in great form, which is somthing that cannot be said of any of the gentlemen here. Peter Schreier, sounds terrible as Ascanio. He always disappoints with his nasal sounds. I've many recordings where he sings, and everytime, I have to skip the arias he performs. I just can't handle the sounds he produces. Why did his voice teachers not coach him on proper placing of the voice to avoid sounding nasal? Voice production 101. Geez! If you purchase this recording, expect brilliance from all female singers, but nothing much of consequence from the guys!
