This recording is phenomonal! Anna makes the most challenging aria sound effortless. Her voice is nothing short of spectacular!

5.0 out of 5 stars Truly Bellissima, July 24, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: "La Bellissima" Anna Moffo: The Debut Recordings (Audio CD)

Anna Moffo has the most beautiful voive ever heared, anywhere, ever. The arias on this CD showcase her drop-dead-gorgeous tone quality, stellar technique, and versitility. She sings everything one wants to hear, from the classic Puccini war-horses that are sure to get stuck in one's head (especcially since she sings them with perfect fluidity) to bel canto stuff on which she shocks you with coloratura ability (listen to "Una voce poce fa"). Moffo is the most underrated opera star of the golden age; voices and stage-presences like hers are nearly impossible to find today. Skip the spiffy new Renee Flemming disk - buy "La Bellissima" and go slack-jawed.

This review is from: "La Bellissima" Anna Moffo: The Debut Recordings (Audio CD)

Each time I listen this CD I am taken away by Anna Moffo's clear sweet voice. Her recording for La Boheme in this CD is one of the most beautiful versions ever recorded. Her voice is effortless and pure, with a translucent quality like a crystal lake.
