5 out of 5 stars Okay so track #1 aside..........2005-12-14

I got this as a gift last Christmas and just got around to writing a review. To start off with, let me say that I think Pavarotti is the greatest tenor ever. Period. His command of his voice (breath control, relaxation, etc.) were absolutely flawless, and no he never shouted (except when he was getting old and losing his voice...maybe), cause I have never heard anyone shout with vibrato. Anyways, yes I have heard better accompanyments than Caruso's (track #1) on a certain children's show that will remain unnamed but it features a large purple dinosaur, but that doesn't ruin the entire CD for me like it did for the other reviewers. Let's face it the rest of the CD is Pavarotti classics. You won't find a better Nessun Dorma anywhere. His La Danza is wonderful, his L'elisir is legendary and La Boheme's Rodolfo is one of, if not his truly signature role. As for the Neapolitan songs, you can't criticize him for those. It's no different than Kathleen Battle throwing in a few spirituals on her CDs. Yes, I wish there were more arias on the CD (Ah! Mes amis for instance) but still was not dissappointed by this CD at all. Buy it!

2 out of 5 stars What the heck?.......2005-09-12

I'm so glad I didn't pay for this disc, instead checking it out from the my public library. The first track, "Caruso", had me thinking I was playing the wrong CD. It's not so much that it's electronic accompaniment. It's really bad synthesizer music. Horribly bad. Inexcusably bad. Cheap-lounge-singer-who-can't-afford-a-piano bad. That train wreck of track sets exactly the worst tone, destroying the mood for the rest of the album. If it weren't for some of the later selections from La Bohème and L'Elisir d'Amore, this CD would be a total loss. Even then, these gems are completely drowned in a gushing flow of treacly Italian "classics" apparently aimed at a certain demographic of blue-haired, tittering Pavarotti fans. I don't mean to sound like a snob. It's just the bad vibe from that first track rattling me. My advice: get it from the library and listen to your favorites. Avoid everything else on pain of intense aural assault.

2 out of 5 stars Why on earth is this listed under classical music?.......2004-03-22

Pavarotti has a short but excellent repertoire that belongs in "Classical Music" (e.g. Fille du Regiment), however 99% of his recordings belong in Popular Music. Amazon folks, please get your act straight on this guy and his other two tenor friends!

2 out of 5 stars The Very Best Of Luciano Pavarotti.......2004-01-28

This weekend I purchased "The Very Best of Luciano Pavarotti", Romantica. The first track, Caruso is terrible. Classical music, opera, etc, should never be played with synthesized anything! This is especially true with voices like Pavarotti's. This first track was CHEAP and tinny sounding.

Pavarotti is good, but I think that the title is misleading.

Classical music should be with real musical instruments. Lesson #1, if it takes electricity, it's NOT a musical instrument.

5 out of 5 stars Amazing music.......2005-02-22

According to my tradition, I always buy a CD at the Virgin record store in the Charles De Gaulle airport when I am leaving to come back to the States. Last time I just happened to buy I Muvrini's A Strada, and I have to say I was blown away. I don't want to rehash what has been already said here, but the music is entrancing and just sublime. The best word I can think to describe it is soaring. If you like world music, or fantastic music in general, buy this album. You will not be disappointed.

I generally hold off on five-star reviews unless the music really reaches me. The last album I gave five stars to was Jay-Z's The Black Album. A Strada, though very very different and a completely different musical style, is just as good in that the music just reaches you.

5 out of 5 stars a strada.......2001-04-05

This is the best of i muvrini... powerful, haunting and sweet! I first heard this album while in Corte on the wonderful island of Corsica last May, and it remains one of the albums I continue to enjoy often. I have to admit that the album, for me, triggers fantastic memories of a month in Corsica... its people, its land and its food. But the music of "a strada" holds its own as a beautiful and compelling harmony of voices and instruments.

5 out of 5 stars A must!!.......2000-10-29

I could not agree more with my fellow fan, Gypsy Flores, except that "the little Mufflons" are live on stage even better then on CD. I had the pleasure to see them live a couple of times in their annual summer tour in Corsica and it blows you out: The atmosphere, the music, the charisma, the background, just the most perfect and memorable gigs I have ever seen! Goosebumps!

5 out of 5 stars A Strada--I Muvrini.......2000-10-19

From the first moment I heard I Muvrini's only release in this country, À Bercy (Mondo Melodia 96); I was struck by the power of their music.  I knew I not only had to seek out more of their music; but the music of Corsica in general.  They (and the music of Corsica) have become a regular feature of my Friday Global Village   Their most current c.d., "A Strada", is a double c.d. and is a retrospective o their work of the past ten years or so (they have been recording for more than 20 years).  One of the c.d.'s is a compilation of some of their "best original" songs and the other c.d. in the set, separately titled "Pulifunie", is in the traditional polyphonic style of singing of Corsica.

The group is led by brothers, Jean-François and Alain Bernardini, who possess two of the most extraordinary voices I have ever heard. Alain has a sweet and clear voice that comes straight from his heart, while Jean-François, the composer and poet in the group, has a rich and emotionally passionate that comes from deep in his soul.  They sing in Corsican which (like Italian) is a beautiful and expressive language.  They grew up in a small village in northern Corsica.  Their father, Jules Bernardini, was a poet and singer.  When Alan and Jean-François were children, their father taught them to sing and they performed with him on tiny stages (often building them themselves outdoors in the villages of Corsica.  In the 1970's, they collaborated with the group U Cantu Populu Corsu.  Later, they formed I Muvrini (Les Mouflons, in french) and originally recorded on the main Corsican label Ricordu.  They now record on their own label--AGFB Productions.

They are backed by a group of excellent musicians including Malagasy accordion player, Regis Gizavo, French hurdy-gurdy player, Gilles Chabenant and Corsican cetera player, Jean Bernard Rongiconi. They also add the modern elements of keyboards, drums, and synthesizers to very good and tasteful effect.

I Muvrini are Corsica's most popular and successful group both inside Corsica and in western Europe.  Amazingly, they are almost unknown in the USA; but it is one of my goals in life to amend that!

    Customer Reviews:

    1 out of 5 stars Not what I expected.......2000-09-30

    This compilation does not contain titles of real hit movies. It contains mostly sentimental or comic songs from old movies and even from the ones I managed to recognise only a handful were original. It struck me hard to find "Enae Volare" from "Les Visiteurs", the only title I ordered this compilation for, terribly altered but that might concern me alone. Finding "What a Feeling" from "Flashdance" similarly altered made me wonder... later, on the back of the box, I found a small note saying, as I could decrypt from French, that the songs in the album were not necessary original. I should've been warned about this in advance!
