Product Description

Chronique amazon.fr

Beverly Sills, de son vrai nom Belle Silbermann, débuta sa carrière en 1948. La soprano coloratur américaine réussit à imposer un timbre de voix extraordinaire de souplesse et de couleurs. Cette artiste fut curieuse de tous les répertoires, y compris de la musique contemporaine. Elle a supervisé ce coffret de 2CD qui est une introduction à l'ensemble de son répertoire et notamment aux opéras de Donizetti et Bellini qui viennent d'être réédités chez Westminster et qui comptèrent parmi ses grands succès à la scène, notamment au Metropolitan Opera de New York et à La Scala de Milan. Dans ce double CD on retrouve des extraits d'opéras de Bellini, Charpentier, Donizetti, Korngold, Lehar, Massenet, Mozart, Offenbach, Richard Strauss... --Étienne Bertoli

1.0 out of 5 stars Shrieking isn't singing, May 20 2004
By A Customer
Since a Sills-Fanatic feels free to bash Callas numerous times we'll retaliate! Stop shrieking, Sills! Your vocal vinegar is an abomination! Start singing pop, you need a mike!

5.0 out of 5 stars Claws, Nov 15 2003
By G. Golding (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I already wrote a great review of this collection. It is supreme artistry, and I find her high notes rather large and not shrill. My only question is about the cover photo. Those fingers look like something out of Edward Scissorhands or Nightmare on Elm Street! Does anyone else agree with me? Almost seems like someone must have done some false touch-ups to make them look like claws!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow, Aug 17 2003
By A Customer
Wow not much more I need to say here. It was a pleasure finding all of these arias in one compilation. They are Miss Sills' gems, represent her art very well. The 3 Queens arias are very noteworthy. Check them out.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not quite the last word
Sills was my favorite coloratura when I was a young high school opera fan. Then I heard her in person and was extremely disappointed.
Her technique was unsurpassed. Read more

Just buy this CD. Beverly Sills at her best. And why, oh why, did the reviewer, who loved the cd, only give it two stars? Must have been a computer glitch! Read more
