    What can one say it’s Callas, a classic of her age which does not age or depreciate with time
  • Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 November 2024
    For me this is a lovely album of Maria Calas it has all of the songs that I really like and the cherry on the top is her voice... big fan.

  • Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 December 2018
    A wonderful collection. The voice, the singing, the emotion. I play this again and again in the car and just get 'transported'. I'm probably getting soft in my old age, but the combination of music and her voice brings a lump to the throat, and I've absolutely no idea what the words mean!

    You either adore her, as I do, or you think she sounds like a cat on the roof. Many of the items on these disc I have on various discs so it is nice to have them on this set. I shall sit back in my armchair and enjoy many a pleasureable evening. If you are a fellow admirer sit back and enjoy.

    Although a non-opera buff I was astonished at how many times this was played during/after Xmas. Perhaps the reason for this is the quality of her voice and the way she expressed the sentiments of each piece.

    Maria is clearly a great loss to the opera world although she died a little while ago.

    I am not a good reviewer of opera and classical albums, at least in the terms that will do the artist justice. But then again if you are buying this album you know what you are getting right? The album is well recorded and if you have a revealing system you wont be disappointed.

    Reviewed in the Netherlands on 15 June 2024
    Maria Callas is overleden in 1977 dus ver voor het DDD tijdperk en in een tijd dat elke toon muziek nog analoog werd opgenomen. Voor de perfectionisten met oren uit de 21e eeuw geldt mijn advies: begin er niet aan! Voor ieder die deze muziek puur beluistert zoals hij is en zich verplaatst naar de tijd waarin het materiaal is opgenomen is dit een absolute must!
