5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful, the Master at his best!, November 17, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Bravo Domingo (Audio CD)

The clarity of his voice, the range, and the power is unsurpassed! The selections are fantasic. Granada sung by Domingo is stirringly beautiful and deeply moving, you can feel his love for Spain and mastery of his art.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Excerpts, January 20, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Bravo Domingo (Audio CD)

Incredible 2 CD set at a very affordable price. The arias and ensemble chosen show Domingo at his very best in almost all the roles of the repertoire.
The set also features Granada and few other songs including two tangos sung in a baryton voice....again greatly...

GREAT Domingo.

5.0 out of 5 stars Feed the hunger of my mexican soul....., October 12, 2003

By 

winnkin (Portland OR) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Bravo Domingo (Audio CD)

This man brings up the wonderful tones of my youth, the songs of generations before me, and sends them forth into the atmosphere of my soul in such a way that brings pride, tears, and love for all I grew up with. A most definite recommend for anyone who loves both Mexican music and a glorious vocalist.
