This collection features celebrated arias as interpreted by the great Marilyn Horne. In addition to a brief biography, each selection, in standard voice and piano format, is followed by notes which indicate the variants, breaths, fermatas, and all of the nuances that Horne employed to turn these arias into masterpieces of interpretation. A wonderful reference tool for vocal coaches, professional singers and voice students.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Paradoxically satisfied!!!,
This review is from: Marilyn Horne - Voices of the Opera Series: Aria Collections with Interpretations (Paperback)
This is a wonderful book. It shows how some Rossini arias were ornamented by my favorite singer, Marilyn Horne. I wish I could give it five stars, but I feel the publishers had better seize on the opportunity that M. H. is still alive and publish a book with ALL her Rossini triumphs. I can never get enough of anything related to Marilyn Horne.
If you are Rossini mezzo or a serious voice teacher/coach, you must buy this book.

This review is from: Marilyn Horne - Voices of the Opera Series: Aria Collections with Interpretations (Paperback)
This collection of arias and songs with interpretations as sung by the great Marilyn Horne is by far one of the best musical references available! It is detailed and includes great performance notes. Not only as a major fan of Ms. Horne but also a major fan of the true Bel Canto style and execution, this book is something that ALL should have handy that deem themselves voice teachers, coaches, admirers, etc. In the line of the greats before her, she keeps with the tradition and utilizes a technique that far surpasses MOST or all today! I would recommend this to anyone that is developing their knowledge of the style and as a reference for those that are teaching it. It is truly phenomenal!
