This CD is absolutely wonderful! The range of songs on the CD show just how versitile Kiri Te Kanawa really is. Anyone who appreciates a beautiful voice will be rewarded by this CD time and time again. It is a must buy!

This review is from: Kiri Te Kanawa - Greatest Hits ~ 14 Favorites of Opera, Popular & Traditional Song (Audio CD)

I love this CD for its versatile range of songs. I have always been a fan of Dame Kiri but have never bought any of her CD's until now - what a loss of time and enjoyment!!!
Dame Kiri's voice is rich, golden and pure. Each and every song is a treasure to listen to even if you haven't heard some of them before, like me for instance.
I will be playing this CD often. Don't make the mistake I did, buy it now, don't wait twenty years.
