Artists: Various
Released: 2011
Studio: EMI
Album Type: Studio
Tracks: CD 1 covers the Baroque era and includes popular arias from operas, oratorios and cantatas by J.
S. Bach, Handel, Vivaldi, Purcell and Rameau. It ends with two items by Gluck, whose works link
the Baroque period with the Classical era of Haydn, Beethoven and Mozart that followed it.
¿¿ CD 2 is devoted entirely to arias by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, many of whose operas remain
today the mainstay of the repertoire in opera houses around the world. The most famous Mozart
operas are generously represented here with several items each from Die Entf¿¿hrung aus dem
Serail, Le Nozze di Figaro, Don Giovanni, Cos¿¿ fan tutte and Die Zauberfl¿¿te.
¿¿ CD 3 begins with two arias from Beethoven¿¿s only opera, Fidelio, and one from Weber¿¿s classic
work Der Freisch¿¿tz, before moving to a group of pieces by Richard Wagner. Then come several
examples of arias from Slavonic operas by Tchaikovsky (Russian), Dvoř¿¿k and Smetana (Czech)
before returning to Germany for attractive examples of the music of Richard Strauss and Erich
Korngold.
¿¿ The next CD transports us to France to enjoy extracts from some of the world¿¿s most famous
operas, including Bizet¿¿s Carmen, Gounod¿¿s Faust, Massenet¿¿s Manon, Offenbach¿¿s Contes
d¿¿Hoffmann and many other favourites. The disc ends with the romantic aria ¿¿Depuis le jour¿¿ from
Charpentier¿¿s Louise.
¿¿ In CD 5 we visit Italy at the height of its operatic glory in the 19th century, starting with the bel
canto treasures of Bellini, Donizetti and Rossini and them moving to some of the best-loved arias
of all times by Giacomo Puccini from his great masterpieces like La boh¿¿me, Madama Butterfly,
Tosca and Turandot. The disc concludes with music from the verismo school in three highly
dramatic arias by Catalani, Mascagni and Giordano, including ¿¿Ebben? ne andr¿¿ lontana¿¿ and ¿¿La
mamma morta¿¿.
¿¿ CD 6 is devoted entirely to possibly the greatest Italian operatic composer of all ¿¿ Giuseppe
Verdi. It covers all his best-known operas from early works like Ernani and Attila, through his three
great middle-period triumphs of Rigoletto, Il trovatore and La traviata, up to the great masterpieces
of his maturity like La forza del destino, Don Carlo and Aida. The programme ends with the
poignant ¿¿Ave Maria¿¿ from the last act of Otello, sung by Desdemona before she is murdered by
her jealous husband Othello.
