DELIGHTFUL MUSIC, DELIGHTFULLY SUNG, January 2, 2009
This review is from: Offenbach: Arias and Overtures - Frederica von Stade (Audio CD)
Offenbach was a master of light musical theatricals; von Stade, a mistress of song. Put them together as in this recording and you have the makings of a delightful hour of listening. Hopefully, for those not yet acquainted with the original productions from which the songs are taken, these fine renditions will prove a stimulus to buy or borrow some or all of the increasing number of these which are being made available by means of DVD's. I recommend that medium because they are filled with lilting music, colorful scenery and costume, dance, and some of the finest singers you are likely to hear.
