The best of latin music through Domingo's voice.......1999-08-10
This CD goes wherever I go, it is with no doubt, the queen of my collection. Medleys are wonderfully orchestrated and arranged and every song makes you travel anywhere between Mexico and Buenos Aires. Here, Domingo's voice is more like a musical instrument than anything else and each song you'll discover a new instrument. Honestly, I would personally award it six stars.
Classic Latin American tunes beautifully sung and produced,.......1998-12-11
Domingo's love for traditional Latin American music shines throughout this CD. A selection of great "standards", beautifully arranged and recorded by one of the world's great voices. "De Mexico a Buenos Aires," written by Domingo's son is the one original song on the recording and is one of many highlights here. I have listenned to this CD countless times over the past two years and it remains a delight.

Customer Reviews:
The most noble voice.......2004-05-28
Victoria de los Angeles' voice not only has a silken quality and fascinating glow to it but it is one of the most regal, noble sounds you'll ever hear. She illuminated those moments of quietness, gentleness and noble, feminine pride and elegance like no other soprano before and after her. This release of her "Spanish Songs" has never been surpassed. The songs of her homeland seem to have been written for her beautiful instrument alone, she fills every piece with special beauty and charm, religious flair and beautiful, noble simplicity. Buy this recording and see why Victoria is one of the best sopranos ever having come from Spain.
PURCHASE THIS JEWEL WHILE YOU CAN.......2002-01-08
FOR A LONG TIME "SONGS OF SPAIN" HAS BEEN MY FAVORITE ALBUM OF CLASSICAL, POPULAR, SECULAR AND RELIGIOUS (CHRISTIAN AND SEPHARDIC) SPANISH SONGS. DE LOS ANGELES DEFIES A RIVAL IN THIS GENRE. DE LARROCHA, SORIANO AND ZANETTI PROVIDE UNEQUALED ACCOMPANIEMENTS. THE RECORDINGS ARE SECOND ONLY TO LIFE PERFORMANCES. I UNDERSTAND THAT EMI INTENDS TO TAKE THIS SET OUT OF PUBLICATION. PURCHASE THIS JEWEL WHILE YOU CAN! I JUST PURCHASED MY THIRD SET FROM AMAZON AND I TREASURE IT AS MUCH AS MY FIRST!
luminous artistry from a genius.......2000-12-26
the vocal artist of vocal artistsdisplays her absolutely gorgeous voice and musical understanding of spanish feeling with a warmth that is unmatched anywhere.the only thing better was to hear her in person!
A special Dignity and an Unfailing Beauty of Voice........2000-09-17
This set offers four generously-filled CDs comprising almost 140 Spanish songs from Victoria de los Angeles' repertoire. To all of them she brings a special dignity and an unfailing beauty of voice. The earliest recordings date from 1950 and the last is the items she sang at the opening of the Barcelona Olympics in 1992. Yes, you will find the ubiquitous "Clavelitos!" here, and a later version of "La maya el ruisenor" from "Goyescas". The enclosed booklet provides illuminating notes by Lionel Salter, who also translated many of the texts which are also included. Accompanists include Gerald Moore and Alicia de Larrocha, and Victoria de Los Angeles provides a guitar accompaniment herself in one song. The last track of all, a zapateado from a zarzuela, recorded live in New York, must almost have brought the house down.

Customer Reviews:
A Classic Recording.......2007-03-09
This was a great buy for me. The power and accuracy of Placido's voice are demonstrated well. Two CD's and 34 songs--just can't beat that for the price.
A must for a Placido fan.......2005-04-23
If you've continously listened to this master of tenors and said "wow, I like it, I want to listen even more of him", then raise it to 5 stars, which is the rating I personally give the CD; HOWEVER, if you've only heard him once or not at all, you might want to wait a while and get to know him and other tenors better. Why? Well, disc 1 is the "classical" disc, with arias from famous operas and choral pieces by Puccini and the like, but disc 2, the "modern" or "popular" disc, contains music that will leave you a bit puzzled, since it's is not for everyone; a lot of people have never heard zarzuela or tunes by Manzanero or Lecuona. In short, this disc is better suited for fans of Placido or people who want to know him better, if not, it still is a top choice, and this way you just might fall in love with him (well, his singing, not him literally).
Great for what it is.......2005-01-13
I agree with the previous poster that this does not contain his great dramatic stuff like otello/wagner, but the collection is a beautiful one. There are some great recordings here, and his crossover stuff(maria, Dulcinea, impossible dream) is very interesting. His opera is of course impecable and brilliant. Finally we get to hear Domingo's high C in Di Quella Pira, and its a good one. The zarzuela or spanish operetta type songs and are wonderful.
I found this to be beautiful and exhilirating to listen to.
Certainly not ALLL the Essential Domingo.......2005-01-03
I grew up with Placido Domingo. Not in the sense of being boyhood friends, but rather in the sense that he was part of my "Golden Age" at the Metropolitan Opera. Of the "Three Tenors" (more Marketing hype than useful grouping of three fine singers) Domingo was the most dramatic - the "heaviest" of the three. His repertoire extended well beyond the lyric - and that's why this collection is not all the "essential" Domingo, but rather offers an interesting look at the lighter, more lyric side of Placido Domingo. You won't find Lohengrin or Otello here, but you will find many of the more lyric tenor arias from Verdi, Puccini and Donizetti - to name a few.
There is an "edge" to Domingo's voice that perhaps accounts for his ability to transition successfully into the heavier repertory. I find that tonal quality particularly noticeable in this collection - and sometimes too pronounced. On the other hand, there are a few wonderful surprises. His "Una furtiva lagrima" from L'elisir d'amore is a stand out. Its rare you here a tenor with this much power sing the role. The duet "Bima dagli occhi" from Madama Butterfly with Renata Scotto, again casts Pinkerton with a quality tenor not often found in the opera house any more. I loved the selection from Gianni Schicchi - when is the last time you found Rinuccio cast with this size tenor voice - and the Italian tenor's aria from Rosenkavalier is a treasure from a recording currently out of print. And then there is one of Domingo's signature roles - Jack Rance in Puccini's La Fanciulla del West. No one sings Rance better than Domingo - and the excerpt from the complete recording finds Domingo at his very best.
Disk two is devoted to song - popular and classical. There is a fair amount of tripe - too much cross over (as in who needs to hear Domingo sing "The Impossible Dream" from Man of La Mancha - Broadway is not Mr. Domingo's genre). But there are some wonderful cuts as well - "Granada" is a Domingo encore specialty, and I was particularly struck by the song "In Pace" from the motion picture Hamlet - I never saw the film and was truly taken aback at how beautiful a song this is, and Domingo's voice soars.
I found the sound of these CD's a bit "tinny". Perhaps its the analogue to digital conversion, but I was disappointed in the overall sound. The album is badly mistitled "The Essential Placido Domingo". Certainly this is some of the essential Domingo - and some very wonderful examples of the lyric Domingo - but there is clearly a volume two to come - the dramatic Placido Domingo. But why wait - buy this fine collection, and then feast on some of the complete recordings such as Otello or Lohengrin.
Solid, comfortable, familiar -- very good!.......2005-01-01
Why wait to see if this reviewer enjoyed Sony's latest offering: I did, and so will you. Hats off to Sony for getting it right with this two CD, 34-song bonanza of Placido Domingo singing -- well, as the name implies -- the essentials, from opera to Broadway to Hollywood, in a mix that keeps its distance while holding it all together in a package that breeds enough familiarity to make even the most harsh tenor critic purr. The more clasical offerings are on the first CD and the more sentimental are on disc two. Interestingly, I found side two more seductive and subdued in tone, and enjoyed listening to Mr. Domingo's interpretation of such popular favorites as "Maria" from "West Side Story", "Dulcinea" from "Man From LaMancha" and a couple duets with John Denver (Perhaps Love) and Maureen McGovern (A Love Without End). The songs selected for side two actually did set a thematic tone. Readers of my reviews know that I place a high value on a CDs overall ability to present what is offered in a bundle that sets and keeps a mood. I usually ask two questions: is it consistent once the mood is set; and does it keep the listener in that mood throughout once established? Here, well, here, I break from tradition and profess some confusion. The mood on disc one is not thematic but ecclectic -- from solo's to duets, from live recordings to studio, from one orchestra to the next, from upbeat to mellow. Technically, while there is some difference in the overall sound quality while switching from one setting to another, it is something you would have to listen for to catch, and becaue of this doesn't amount to a serious flaw as presented. What saves disc one from my usual "tenor blahs" is Mr. Domingo's exceptional voice and the selection of songs chosen -- which, while altering between one mood and another, are all familiar enough that we listen with knowing ease to what we expect. This isn't the kind of CD you put on while holding a conversation with anyone, but rather one you would put on, close your eyes and listen to for its sheer technical achievement -- or more precisely for Mr. Domingo's talent. The voice is clear and strong and passinate and reflects Mr. Domingo's control of his range and interpretive skills. Listen to Verdi's "Ingemisco" with The London Symphony and Leonard Bernstein; Puccini's "Bimba Dagli Occhi" with Renata Scoto (he sings a couple meodies with Scoto) and Umberto Giordino's "Amor ti Vieta" from Fedora to get an idea of what I am referring to here. It took me a couple sessions with each side to settle down and appreciate what was offered. Hopefully this review will get you ready and you will enjoy it from the start. PJW

Perales, at his best! (como siempre, el mejor!).......2007-02-07
I was pleasantly surprised to hear Perales in this new CD. His voice is as warm and expresive as ever, his compositions are full of feeling and his poetry delicate and tender. I hightly recommend it to old fans and new ones!!!
Una sorpresa agradable escuchar a Perales en este nuevo CD. Su voz es tan cálida y expresiva como siempre, sus composiciones son llenas de sentimiento y sus poemas son delicados y tiernos. Recomiendo efusivamente el album a todos sus antiguos fans y a los nuevos!!
Excellent.......2006-08-08
I agree with the previous review. Perales did make a radical change in the arrangements he chose for his new cd by working with the talented Javier Limon, but as I told myself when I heard this cd, "esto es mas Perales que Limon." You will still find the very medolic style of J.L Perales and his beautiful poetry, but this time it will be mixed with the fresh sounds of J. Limon.
A fantastic work!
Yet another majestic work of art from Cuenca's poet.......2006-08-04
Perales is an immensely prolific composer, having catalogued over 450 songs over his 32-year career as a singer/songwriter. Yet his productivity is only surpassed by his gift of composing incredibly profound poems, all of which he later envelopes with lovely melodies.
Anyone who has followed his trajectory since 1974, when he released his first album, knows too well that Perales' career has spanned three distinct epochs. In the 1970s, a socially-conscious Perales challenged the materialism and social hierarchy of his day via gems such as "El Labrador" and "Ecos de Sociedad." Later, when his pouplarity peaked in the 1980s, he became somewhat more commercial with his love songs, such as "El Amor" and "Cuando Vuelvas." Today, he has evolved into an artist who no longer needs to sell his music; rather, he is much more interested in perfecting his craft as a composer. As he admits on his official web site, he hopes that his best song is the one that he has yet to compose.
This jazzy-tinged album is a musical gem, yet a radical departure stylistically from past efforts. Perales has opted to let the music speak for itself by selecting exceptional musicians and only a few musical instruments. Along with the jazz-flavored arrangements, you'll be treated to flamenco guitars and some surprising basso nova stylings.
"Como Llenar Mi Tiempo" is a beautiful tribute to his wife, wherein he admits to her that, in her absence, he is incomplete. "Lo Que Fue De Los Dos" is a tragic recount of a long-term marriage, in which both spouses have been severed by the passing of time and the loss of passion. In "Una Cancion Para La Paz," Perales returns to one of his recurring themes: the quest for peace and reconciliation. In this composition, he is joined by a Brazilian choir, a first for this seasoned artist.
There is so much to be said about this terrific collection, yet I am limited by space. If you are a fan of soothing arrangements, poignant poetry, and melodious songs, this album is for you.

Before their expulsion in 1492, the Jews of medieval Spain developed a rich and lively culture, including an exquisite repertory of songs called romanceros--and they kept that repertory alive as they settled in places as diverse as Morocco, Bosnia, Turkey, and Bulgaria. Lovely as the romanceros are, they would have languished as the objects of ethnomusicological studies and might have disappeared altogether, were it not for the efforts of gifted musicians like Hespèrion XX. Jordi Savall and his ensemble, fronted by the unique soprano Montserrat Figueras, just about single-handedly brought those songs to the attention of the modern public with this 1976 recording (now reissued at a bargain price). Disc 1 features a selection of secular music from "Christian" Spain--that is, the courts of Ferdinand and Isabella and the Catholic nobility. The music is elegant and occasionally austere, but Figueras, Savall, and colleagues give the livelier pieces a flavorful swing. Yet disc 2, which features the Sephardic songs, is the real drawing card here. It was in Moorish Spain that Jewish culture flourished, so Hespèrion XX performs the romanceros with Arabic instruments, such as the 'ud (the ancestor of the European lute) and hand drums. These musicians, rechristened Hespèrion XXI in honor of the new century, perform this repertory with more polish now than they did in 1976, but--just as A Feather on the Breath of God did for Hildegard von Bingen--this recording made its own little bit of musical history. --Matthew Westphal

Like a religious experience.......2007-03-28
This disc is pure magic that transends and defies definition. It is time period music that has been rereleased to capture the magic of the original recording. Each song is amazing. The music creates a mood that is best enjoyed alone ,in private so that your thoughts can be elevated to the point of inspiration. Although I like both discs I prefer the one that features Sephardic Romances over the disc that is Court Music and Songs. Montserrat Figueras angelic voice lends itself to beautiful interpretations of these beautiful songs from the Age before the expulsion of the Jews from Spain in 1492. This ancient music is preserved and freshly interpreted under the masterful leadership of Jordi Savall for an authentic recreation. If you have never heard Hesperion XX check this one out, it is fantastic. Recommended for classical music fans who want to hear something different. Once you hear Montserrat Figuerras voice you will feel the inspiration and be hooked on her angelic voice.
Dissappointing soprano.......2006-02-22
I was excitet buying this CD, expecting the quality of songs equal or better than
Begona Olavide and Carlos Paniagua on MA recodings. The music was fine but singing by soprano Montserrat Figueras was borderline annoying.
A balm for any soul.......2001-01-02
Attempting to review a Savall/Figueras CD is a frustrating task. The arsenal of superlatives is so quickly depleted. Terms like 'matchless' and 'unique' might be used, but lack strict definition. After all, a 'matchless' voice needn't be a good one. Terms like 'divine' or 'angelic' tend to remove Montserrat's singing from the real and human. She's nothing if not human. Having been blessed with watching as well as hearing her perform, vouching for her vitality on a stage is easy. But the superior quality of her voice and presentation is so far above the mundane or common as to become nearly indescribable. Anything less than adulation for her seems to indicate shortcomings in the disk or performer. Neither performance nor disk quality falls short here. That she performs religious songs here simply adds to the power of her impact on the listener. You necessarily hesitate, cease other activity, and, if moved enough, drop to your knees in respect and admiration. Tough to do in a crowded concert hall, but the motivation is there. And this from someone who shunned listening to vocal performances for many years. Dame Kiri was one exception and Argenta another, but the discovery of Figueras was the discovery of a voice without flaw.
Anyone visiting this page must certainly know of Jordi Savall and Hesperion XX. You may, however, have missed the glory of Montserrat Figueras' voice. Make up for that lack right away. The selections available here are pitifully limited, but this CD is as good an introduction as any. Don't hesitate to sit and enjoy this music. The sounds received will be a reward to whatever spiritual sense you possess.
Ten stars if possible..........2000-01-27
I agree completely with Stephan: outstanding performance. Montserrat at her best. If "Si d'amor pena sentis" doesn't bring tears to your eyes, what does?
Historical re-release.......1999-07-20
Hesperion XX were pioneers in reviving this music, and collectors will value these recordings which first came out in 1976. However most listeners may prefer more recent recordings by Wimmer on Naxos, and Alia Musica on Harmonia Mundi which have digital sound and include Spanish, and occasionally Hebrew, texts and translations.

BIG BOY'S BEST CD.......2005-07-18
This is one the best Reggaetone cds. Big Boy is a pioneer in the Puerto Rican Reggae. Forget about Daddy Yankee, Big Boy was one the first ones to open the door to the International Market for other Latin Rappers. Everyone who's a real Reggae fan knows that Big Boy, Vico C, El General, Ivy Queen were the first ones to spread Reggaeton through out all Latin America and the U.S.. Those rappers worked hard to earn a top spot in the Reggaetone world. All OF those who just starting to become famous should thank these guys, so please don't think that EL Reggaetone has being introduced or now famous because of Daddy Yankee or Don Omar. They are awesome rappers, but they were just underground a few years ago.And whatever happened to Frankie Boy, Don Chezina, El FLAKO, BEBE and the rest which i've forgot. If you really want to hear lyrics and beats that get to your heart and will make you laugh, dance or even cry then buy the Big Boy Cds and other CDS such as THE NOISE, and Playero you'll hear lots of good music that'll remind you or show you how El verdadero Reggaetone was actually several years ago. The roots of the Reggaetone of today. Don't forget the reggae rappers who really introduced this contagious music to the world. I grew up listening to Big BOY, Vico C, Wiso G, Ivy Queen, El General and others who are not longer in the game.
Don't buy it / No lo compres.......2003-12-01
If you are looking for latin hip hop don't buy this CD, it ain't worth it. In the other hand if you like reaggeton, maybe you'll like. Personally I hate EVERYTHING BIG BOY, BABY RASTA y GRINgo, among others do. Better buy "El Abayerde" the first and latest cd of one of the spanish speaking rappers, or anything from "La Mala Rodriguez".
summer of 1997 love in the air.......2003-11-03
This cd is the best igive it 5 stars . I love the song mis ojos lloran por ti cuz it brings memories of my first true love back then we used to chill to that song .
*BEST CD EVER*.......2002-09-22
This CD "Mis Ojos Lloran Por Ti" and all the rest of Big Boy's CD's are awsome they are good for any ocassion, I listen to it everyday and I don't get tired of it even though it's been a while since it came out it's still great.This song keeps me up all day...I love it! I recommend people to buy this CD and listen to it and then you will see what I'm talking about! Go Buy it... NOW!
AWESOME CD.......2002-07-17
This is one of the best CDs that I've ever heard. It has amazing beats which make you want to rap along w big boy. its best song is mis ojos lloran por ti..i've been listening to this song for about 5 years now and it's still my fav song. if ur into spanish rap you will definetly luv this CD. Even though this great CD came out a long time ago...i still concider it AWESOMMEEE!!!!!

Muy bueno!.......2004-09-15
Esta mujer si que canta! Despues de tantos anos, todavia sale con exito tras exito. Me encanto "Mas mala que tu". Tiene una voz muy "sultry", con una emocion que se siente a rojo vivo. Si quieres eschucar una cantante de alto calibre, compra este CD.
Great Voice, So-So to Worse Material.......2004-09-01
Ednita Nazario has a great voice but she always seems to record saccharine songs with cliched lyrics, forced rhymes and overblown production values. The beauty of her voice generally overcomes the mediocrity of the material but not always. Fans of this type of pop music (many as you can see by the other reviews) wont find much to complain about. I love Ednita's voice but I wish she would record less commercial songs with more sophisticated lyrics that are worthy of her talents.
Not Her Best.......2004-05-03
I am a long time Ednita Nazario fan and LOVE the sensual quality of her voice. I own all her recordings and eagerly awaited Por Ti. I found it very disappointing. While the voice is just as intoxicating as ever, I find the material to be uneventful in view of the recent live recordings (Acustico), and her other cd's. I hope her next effort is more in tune to what her incredible potential is.
SIN PALABRAS.......2004-04-29
Me sucedio que al oirlo pro primera vez el cd no me llamo la antencion en lo absoluto, pero la segunda vez quede oyendo las letras de cada cancion y no pude creer que dia a dia año a año la Nazario se vaya superando a si misma, puesto que los cantantes tienen un techo, luego que llegan van cayendo en calidad discografica porque año a año se van repitiendo y terminan cansando, justament e este no es el caso de Ednita que parece ser el Ave Fenix, renace en cada disco y su techo parece no llegar nunca.
La unica lastima es que sus discografica se esfuerza poco y nada en la produccion de sus tapas que no contienen un buen libreto o una buena seccion de fotos, por el resto puedo decir que quien no escucho nunca a Ednita Nazario nunca escucho musica. No puede faltar en la discoteca de nadie que tenga un buen oido musical y guste de la buena musica.
An outstanding puertorican artist.......2004-03-21
Ednita is one of the most valuable artist of Puerto Rico; for this reason, I am not surprise that she made another hit with her new cd, Por ti. Her voice is unique and there is no comparison to anyone.
Tambien queria comentar que Ednita no puede ser comparada con artistas que tan solo estan comensando sus carreras. Ednita es unica es voz y talento, que ha permanecido en un sitial por mucho tiempo. Esta artista ha sabido mantenerse en ventas de popularidad con su esfuerzo y por supuesto por su inigualable voz. Ednita eres un orgullo Puertorriqueno.

Fantastic Latin Music!!!.......2003-05-29
Innis has a wonderful voice, and this album is a must-have for all Latin-music lovers.
Most of the songs have a slow rhythm and are meant to be listened in a romantic setting, or simply when you are feeling romantic (I love 'Eres tu' and 'Todo lo que quieras'). However, there are a few fast-paced songs which make you get up and dance ('El hechizo de tus ojos' is great!).
If you've never heard Innis sing, prepare for a trip to Latin-music heaven!
Bravo!!.......2001-08-06
This artist one of the best "Latin" singers out there. The surprise: Innis is an American (of Italian descent); who developed a remarkable command of the Spanish language and culture in a few short years. His voice is gentle; but strong. He sings with sincerity and passion. And....let's talk about his drop dead good looks!!! He's already rocked Mexico & South America like a 7.5 earthquake. USA - Get ready for the impact of Innis!!!!
