Callas Maria Callas (EMI Classics) HHHH

SHE is the epitome of the perfect operatic soprano - a woman whose fame and status has soared to new heights long after her death. And in this record - which has just gone gold - you can see why. It encapsulates this Greek goddess at her brilliant best, performances of passion, virtuosity and power that still today mesmorize listeners. This record has it all - from Bellini's Casta Diva to Giordano's La Mamma Morta, Puccini's Un Bel Di Vedremo and O Mio Babbino Caro, and Bizet's L'amour Est Un Oiseau Rebelle and Prs Des Remparts de Seville. Callas' vocal range and tone wrings every drop of emotion from every aria. A fitting reminder of an outstanding talent.
