5.0 out of 5 stars BestVerdian soprano ever!, October 12, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Her Greatest Roles (Audio CD)

It is impossible for a passionate Verdi listener not to match the music of Aida,Leonora(1and2),Amelia with the incomparable voice of Leontyne Price.When trying to explain the meaning of the verdian"canto spiegato"it is sufficient to play one of the tracks of this marvellous CD!But also in her Puccini (Tosca) and Mozart(Donna Anna) roles miss Price brings in a freshness, an authority ,which makes also this listening sessions a thrilling experience .
