Music reviews of Renee Fleming: By Request
Music Review: The Best of Renee Fleming
Rating: 5 Stars
This is a compilation of Renee Fleming's best works. I got it primarily for Rusalka's song to the Moon (O Silver Moon) but all the other arias are just perfect. She sings her classic, "Summertime" from Porgy & Bess (another of my favorites) so perfectly and "You'll Never Walk Alone" (she even sang this one at Barak Obama's inauguration ceremony. If you want to hear some of the most famous arias sung so beautifully, you should get this CD.
Description of Renee Fleming: By Request
"by Request" is a Collection of Fleming's Greatest and Most Popular Recordings Including Works by Mozart, Bellini, Pucchini, Verdi and Dvorak. Featuring Recordings from Renee Fleming's Outstanding Decca Discography Together with Two Glorious Tracks Strauss "Cacilie" and Verdi's "la Traviata" a Role Fleming Performed to Critical Aclaim Earlier in 2003.This is a compilation--plus three previously unreleased selections--of some of the glorious Ren?e Fleming's finest work, 15 selections covering 13 composers. The rose-in-full-bloom quality of the voice is staggeringly beautiful: Her rendition of Rusalka's "Song to the Moon" is justly famous and is, alone, worth the price of this CD. Other highlights are Marietta's Lied from Korngold's Die tote stadt, an odd arrangement of the aria from Villa-Lobos's Bachianas Brasilerias No. 5, Manon's Gavotte, and a knock-down-gorgeous reading of Gershwin's "Summertime." The three new recordings are of Violetta's big first-act scene from La traviata, which features one of the most perfect trills heard since Joan Sutherland, a thrilling C?cilie (R. Strauss), and a version of "You'll Never Walk Alone" which is so over the-top that it might make you look away in embarrassment. On the basis of this CD, one would have to acknowledge that Fleming is more interested in--and more successful at--pure singing than she is at character delineation (Butterfly sounds oddly like Wally who sounds too much like Norma), but it's not hard to tell why she's a superstar. Her voice and technique are one in a million. --Robert Levine
