5.0 out of 5 stars Bravo!, July 22, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Italian Album (Audio CD)

I heard this album for the first time at a restuarant in Florence during my trip to Italy. I was surprised it was from the US beacause it has captured the very soul of Italy. After 7 years it has remained my favorite of all Puccini cds I own. I especially like the fact that it is instumental and can be played for many occassions. It never fails to stir the wanderlust for a trip back to Italy! A must for every romantic!

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding compilation of the Italian classics,, May 1, 1999

This review is from: The Italian Album (Audio CD)

I have been a music lover for years. This CD introduced some Italian music to me that I was not familiar with. I listen to this music very often...it is almost theraputic in effect. I have never heard more beautiful music together on one CD. You won't regret getting this one!

4.0 out of 5 stars Graceful background music, May 31, 2008

This review is from: The Italian Album (Audio CD)

Elegant, soothing and graceful. I recently moved into a work-at-home situation and had to get away from my rock-and-roll standards if I were to get any work done. I find the rich sounds of this album perfect for me. It isn't distracting and seems to steer my creative energies effortlessly. I love it.
