5 out of 5 stars The Great Lanza Shows he that he was "The American Caruso".......2007-03-13

Some of Mario Lanza's best classical opera work is in this album. It shows the richness of his operatic voice and why he was the greatest tenor of all time. One who has listened to other great tenors needs to compare with Lanza for the depth and breath of his operatic talent. They will see that he was second to none as this set of recordings shows. It also proves that if he had taken the route to the stage he would have been among the greatest performers of opera of his generation and even ours. That he chose the silver screen, recordings and concerts is a benefit to us who can still enjoy his vast talent. I recommend this for Lanza lovers and those who want to hear the best.

4 out of 5 stars A voice is a person.......2006-09-10

This recording makes it clear that rumours at the time of Mario Lanza's death of his `deteriorating voice' were gossip. The Caruso-album reveals on the whole a large, strong and gifted voice that responds duly to Sir Peter Pears' saying `A violin is a violin, and a piano is a piano, but a voice is a person'. Lanza's egality is unstressed from top to almost bottom, and he appears so humble towards his material - no overextended pitch notes -, that one may wonder whether he should not have committed himself fully to the opera. The arias from the Caruso-film carry his fresh, lively personal trade mark which hyper-aesthetics may call bad taste as much as they like, but which in fact reveals the personality. The Caruso Favourites, however, recorded just shortly before his death vary notably in quality with some Morricone's arrangement of especially Tosti's and Gabriele d'Annunzio's `L'alba separa dalla luce l'ombra' (The dawn separates shade from light) as the bottom. This song which is perhaps the best, Tosti ever wrote, is disgracefully sweetened by violinistic candy-floss that makes one long fiercely for the interpretations by Jussi Björling (see below) or Carlo Bergonzi (Sony 01 060785-10). On top is Gastaldon's `Musica Proibita' which Lanza sings with so much warmth and genuine sweetness that it reminds one of Björling's lovely `Visa kring slånblom och månskära' (Ballad of blackthorn and moonlight) recorded in 1953 (EMI 7243 5 66306 2 8). Mario Lanza renders us himself purely and entirely, and it is RCAVictor who is to blame for the lack of texts in the cover and the unsuitabe arrangement mentioned above

4 out of 5 stars Love Lanza, not my favoirte collection.......2001-07-24

Lanza is my favorite tenor and certainly he there is nothing on this CD that diminishes my opinion of him in that regard. The CD is a classic of course because of the classic movie. Nonetheless, this particular array of music is not my favorite demonstration of Lanza's talent. I'd recommend the 1949-1959 Historical Recordings CD most of all for the best of Lanza.

5 out of 5 stars The best work of Lanza's life........1998-10-08

This piece is unquestionably the best work of Lanza's life. The CD, which takes its title from the movie of the same name, amply demonstrates the power for which Lanza is so famous. It is this CD, more than any other, to which you should refer when comparing the strengths of Caruso, Lanza and Pavarotti. It is a joy from beginning to end.

5 out of 5 stars A good album to introduce yourself to italian music.......2006-07-19

This cd is a collection. It really includes the best songs of Umberto Tozzi. The orchestrations make the songs really easy to listen to, and Tozzi's voice is really unique and appropriate for the sentimental songs he sings. I, particularly like, Nr.1 "Io caminero" Nr. 3 "Ti amo" Nr. 9 "Donna amante mia" Nr. 12 " Gente di mare" which means the people of the sea.

If you would like to listen to some Italian music this would be a good album to start with. A good thing is that the booklet of the cd contains the lyrics.

If you are in your late thirties you might be surprised that you have already heard some of these songs.

5 out of 5 stars music from the past.......1999-05-17

this album features some of his greatest songs, like Gloria and Ti amo. These where all great succeses in Italy and in the rest of Europe. Although the songs are a bit old, from the seventies and eighties, the words and feelings are timeless. It's great music to listen to, it picks you up when you feel down. Just listen for yourself!!! You'll fall in love instantly.

    5 out of 5 stars Beyond all description..........2006-09-19

    As a boy, I heard so many hyperbolic references to the legendary Enrico Caruso that I chose to purchase a remastered copy of his "Greatest Hits" when I first began to acquire recordings as a young man. Soon after, I discovered Pavarotti and my life was changed by his music. Caruso ended up in the Goodwill Store. I am convinced that in 500 years, should the earth cool again and the Muslim hoards abate, the civilized world will still tell tales of the greatest tenor. I have often found myself grumpy when searching for recordings of Pavarotti because of the inconsistent fidelity of the recordings. That search for the definitive Pavarotti recordings, regarding both content and fidelity, has ended with the release of this extraordinary collection. Worth it's weight in gold, the Puccinni Volume (#5) alone is enough to send someone like me into hyperspace. I am astounded by the beauty and power of these performances. I will always remember the day, not long ago, when a NPR commentator glibly mentioned between the weather and the night's playlist the terrible words, "Luciano Pavarotti has announced that he is retiring from Opera." I felt as if something indescribably beautiful was fading from the world. Of course, beauty in all of its earthly forms is fleeting at best, but these discs contain a reflection of it that will surely bolster any soul.

    5 out of 5 stars An Absolute Must-Have for Any Pavarotti Fan.......2004-01-09

    ...and that certainly goes without saying. My one tiny little problem with it is that his recordings of "Santa Lucia" and "Caruso" are not on this incredible box-set. Even though I have those recordings on other CDs, I still think those are very important pieces to include on this set (assuming that this set of Pavi hits would be the only compilation that that any fan of this phenomenal tenor would have). He is probably my biggest idol, and he deserves to have been one of the biggest opera stars in history.

    5 out of 5 stars Wonderful!!!!.......2002-11-07

    This Pavarotti set; The Pavarotti Edition; is a wonderful collection of Arias and songs that cover Luciano's great career. Pavarotti is THE Voice of the 20th Century and this set does him justice. It includes 10 CDs with over 750 minutes of music; Includes Music from All of His roles; has a beautiful 76 page full color booklet; Has a wonderful write up; and includes a bonus CD of Pavarotti's fist album, a 45, from 1964, which has never been released on CD before this set. Every Song is hear, This SET is a must have for every Pavarotti Fan.

          5 out of 5 stars My best baroque CD.......2004-08-29

          Over the years from time to time I bought some CDs with baroque brass ensemble music, always hoping it would be so fascinating as what I knew from my fathers PJBE vynil records. What I bought so far all are nice but also somewhat boring after short time. Unfortunately I never bought something from the PJBE until now, and this is the first time that a complete CD (and in this case even two of them) of baroque music for brass is surprising and fascinating me with every 'song', showing facetes and diversity I always missed on my other records. Finally nothing is like the original PJ!

          5 out of 5 stars superbe.......2004-02-04

          Après nous avoir fait plaisir avec le Greatest Hits, voici un double CD qui nous enchante avec les principales pièces de la Renaissance du sublime Philip Jones Brass Ensemble. Il y a longtemps que nous attendions la mise en CD de ces oeuvres, et nous voila comblé. Pour plusieurs pièces, c'est Elgar Howarth qui les a arrangé. Un grand moment de musique pour cuivres avec de grands compositeurs, délicieusement arrangées.
          Pour éléver encore plus ces 2 cds, saluons encore la présence du London Festival Brass Ensemble dirigé par Elgar Howarth (dont la plus part des membres sont du PJBE), alors quoi de plus normal d'avoir inclu leur préstation.

            5 out of 5 stars Remarkable........2002-02-01

            A great example of Luciano's control over his art. Tranquil, beautiful and wonderful. "Donlente immagine di Fille mia" is worth the price of the cd itself. Pavarotti at his best!

            5 out of 5 stars Although a few signs of wear, a very good buy. Get it!!.......2001-09-16

            Luciano Pavarotti sings his occassional program of arias and songs. His singing is very good. He is 65 and - despite his hair dye - he looks it. So his days as a performer are clearly numbered now.

            However the title is very misleading. It is not a live recital; it's MANY live recitals, as this album is a collection of about four or five different recitals. The voice is recorded very close to the speakers, as if he were trying to cover the movement from one place to another. it also is obvious that Leone Magiera (the acompanist) plays four or five different pianos, none of them really the highest quality.

            Overall, a wonderful gift for a Pavarotti nut (if you can get through the piano playing). Go ahead and buy it now. You will make Amazon smile and - trust me - you will be smiling to. Is there no better recomandation then this?

            4 out of 5 stars The Golden Years Of Pavarotti.......2001-03-29

            First I would like to say that I am very happy to see a solo release of NEW recordings from the great Pavarotti. I liked the program very much and I was glad to see him include songs that he had not previously commercially recorded. What gets me is that this Live Recital is not just one recital he recorded. This is a compilation of recorded songs and arias from four different recitals in four different years and four different opera houses ranging from 1997 to 2000. To me a true recital recording is one performance and speaks volumes on how an artist connects with his/her audience. But on the other hand the singing here is fantastic and those who want more new projects of Pavarotti (including me)won't be disappointed. This is a must for Pavarotti fans and tenor fans alike and please Maestroo Pavarotti, more new projects!!
