Puccini / Handel / Bizet / Mozart / Carreras- Top Ten Opera Classics (CD)
With something of an Opera renaissance going on around the globe, this album can be seen as an entrance ticket to the spectacular world of Opera. Many of the operatic eras are represented here. Samples are taken from the early Italian baroque masters, and mingled with the French post-revolutionary nationalists. There are also selections from the verismo works of Giacomo Puccini. But Opera is first of all excitement and larger than life emotions. Here, we are given entrance to the great dramas of the operatic world. In just ten tracks we are taken on riveting adventures, from the decadent Paris of Puccini's "La Bohème", or the sinful Seville of Bizet's "Carmen" to the ancient streets of Jerusalem in Handel's "Rinaldo". in 42 minutes of high octane Opera the entire emotional spectrum is covered. Collected on 1 CD with 10 tracks the Top Ten Opera Classics is a short introduction to what many consider the love affair of a life time.
