5.0 out of 5 stars Supervia's Incomparable Carmen, May 3, 2005

By	Jeffrey Lipscomb (Sacramento, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Conchita Supervia in Opera (Audio CD)

I will sum up my feelings about this disc in 4 declarative sentences:

1. Spanish mezzo-soprano Conchita Supervia (1895-1936) was quite simply the most tantalizing, most teasing, flat-out sexiest Carmen EVER.

2. Everything else on this CD is wonderful, but the Carmen excerpts are in a class of their own.

3. Pearl's exemplary transfers are FAR superior to those heard on Nimbus Prima Voce CD 7836/7, which sounds like it was recorded under water.

4. No self-respecting fan of great singing should pass this up!
