Music reviews of Prima Voce Treasury of Opera, Vol. 1 [Box Set]

Music Review: Beautiful music - art at its finest - unbelievable bargain.
Rating: 5 Stars

I have both volumes so this review if for volumes one AND two.

The selections are just terrific. Sound quality is quite good considering the age of some of the numbers. You will be introduced to a broad spectrum of artists and composers which is great for a novice like myself. In number after number I am hooked and taken to another dimension by the music. Great singers from the past like Gigli, Bjorling and Ponselle are featured plying their art.

Nimbus records should be commended for producing these volumes at such a reasonable price. Magnificient music. Truly opera is a unique art form.

Description of Prima Voce Treasury of Opera, Vol. 1 [Box Set]

This spectacular collection of more than 90 arias sung by 46 of the greatest singers of the century consists of recordings made between 1906 and 1943. Naturally, they are in far from high fidelity, but this is more charming than disturbing. And all the greats are here: from the tenors Enrico Caruso, Beniamino Gigli, John McCormack, and Jussi Bjoerlong, to the sopranos Rosa Ponselle, Amelita Galli-Curci, Claudia Muzio, and Kirsten Flagstad, to mezzos Conchita Supervia and Ernestine Schumann-Heink, to baritones Giuseppe de Luca and Mattia Battistini, and basses Ezio Pinza and Feodor Chaliapin--to mention a few. The six and a half hours of listening is a veritable primer in Grand Opera; a short synopsis of each selection is included. This set lives up to its name--it is indeed a treasury. --Robert Levine
