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.

Of all the musical forms and traditions, the song--a text with a melody and rhythmic structure--is the most enduring. Its adaptability to every language, subject, and social and economic group, as well as its portability has assured its presence to virtually every aspect of human life. From songs, we gather valuable information about the people of a particular time and place. This recording features a fascinating variety of songs associated with the court of Dom Dinis, who not only was a troubadour, but beginning in 1279, was the king of Portugal. These songs, ably sung and played by baritone Paul Hillier and his Theatre of Voices group, reflect some of the more popular troubadour themes--love, lust, and courtship, satirical stories and life parables--and contain lyrics both vulgar and eloquently poetic. --David Vernier

BREATHTAKING AND ELECTRIFYING! An Essential Elis Regina Recording!!.......2005-11-25

Five MAXIMIZED Stars!! Brilliantly Arranged, Totally Overpowering Performances by Brazil's late SuperDiva!! Heck, just give it a Thousand Stars!! A vocal performance for the ages!! Elis Regina at her most powerful and affecting, 'uping the ante' on many songs she had previously recorded. The more I hear Elis Regina, the better she gets. I'm currently a third of the way through her discography (14 recordings) and she's positively unrelenting in her vocal art and excellence. Now I fully understand the tremendous sense of loss that the country of Brazil continues to experience a full two decades after her accidental death, why days after her death 100,000 grief-stricken Brazilians filled a soccer stadium to mourn her passing and sing her songs, and why her recordings continue to fly off the shelves. Like this brilliant recording, for example. It's mostly in beautiful, sensual Portuguese except for one song in French, but the words are almost besides the point of her incredible singing and ability to communicate through music.

The song "Aquarela Do Brasil" (Watercolors of Brazil) is excitingly re-cast with strings and an extra-sensitive Elis wringing every nuance from it, and adding the characteristic 'batacuda' "Nega Do Cabelo Duro" as the companion piece, with Elis adding "crickets" as her own integral sound effect. "O Sonho" (The Dream), also known in the USA as "MoonDreams", is a sizzling version that tops any that I have heard, including a stupendous English version. She multi-tracks her voice on Edu Lobo's "Casa Forte", creating fascinating echoes that have her eerily 'answering herself', and in the process she cuts the definitive version of this classic. "Canto De Ossanha" (Song of Ossanha- African diety) is an extention of the version on Elis' "Aquarela Do Brasil" CD, creating a greater sense of intensity and urgency that erupts on the bridge of the song. The French classic "Recit de Cassard" (Watch What Happens) from "The Umbrellas Of Cherbourg" movie, is sung in dead-on French in as good a version of this classic as you will ever hear, heavy with nuances and a great atmospheric orchestral arrangement. "Samba De Pergunta" (Question Samba) is plain and simply drop dead beautiful singing of a short, gentle samba. "Memorias De Marta Sare" demonstrates how she can unrelentingly drive both the song and her group to musical perfection. "O Barquinho" (The Little Boat) is a great funky afro-cuban version of that classic.

"Vera Cruz" is one 'Piece D'Resistance' that is an iNCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE of this Milton Nascimento classic. Using a perfect arrangement and a stunning orchestral performance (note the driving conga in the beginning and how the drummer savagely drives the orchestra using Art Blakey-like rim shots throughout), Elis takes the song through hairpin twists and turns, spinning nuances unseen before in any previous version, riding the crest of the orchestra's crescendo, charging and slowing down, charging again and then daringly bringing the orchestra to a full stop, only to restart the entire sequence again. One word: BREATHTAKING! She uses her voice the way she did on her first hit "Arrastao" (The Trawling Net), wringing incredible angst from the song and the arrangement in a way that places her squarely AMONG THE BEST FEMALE SINGERS OF ALL TIME, regardless of genre. Clearly one of her best performances ever and huge kudos to the orchestra and arrangements by Roberto Menescal. A MUST HAVE recording!

(Note:One wonders if the recording "Aquarela Do Brasil", with jazzman Toots Thielemans, came before or after this one. There are similar songs and arrangements shared between each, but Toots Thielemans is missing on this recording, giving Elis the lead all the way on those songs and adding some terrific new songs and performances. And she takes full advantage. Both recordings can be considered bookends to any comprehensive collection. Elis' sizzling, sultry ballad treatment of "O Barquinho" (The Little Boat) on the "Aquarela" CD is not to be missed, nor is "Corrida De Jangada" and "Voce". Buy both, there are huge differences in the songs and the performances)

Hot Elis Regina with a swinging Trio!.......2003-05-18

Always choosing the best musicians, Elis Regina had pianist Antonio Adolfo as the leader of the moment. This album includes Elis Regina's smash hit performance of a traditional samba titled "Nega do Cabelo Duro".

The ensemble is a piano-bass-drums trio.
A must-have album!
