Gran album y gran señor........2007-03-29
Un super album de Domingo, para los amantes de la musica de Ernesto Lecuaona con sus mejores temas un gran disco para el romance.
Domingo con Lecuona: Combinacion maravillosa!.......2003-02-04
Glorious combination: Ernesto Lecuona and Placido Domingo!
Ernesto Lecuona was a virtuoso pianist and a composer of both classical and popular music. He wrote compositions for piano, opera, zarzuela (Spanish light opera), movie scores, and popular songs. He incorporated the rhythms of Cuban popular song (including afro-cuban) into his music. Placido Domingo and the Royal Philharmonic Orquestra provide a wonderful introduction to Lecuona's music. Songs like "Siboney," and "Malaguena" are standards in the repertoire of opera singers and require great voices to do them justice. "Maria la O" is from Lecuona's zarzuela of the same name. The songs on this CD are gorgeous, Placido Domingo sings them beautifully, and the accompaniment is wonderful. The two songs with more pronounced afro-cuban rhythms--"Canto Karabali" and "La comparsa"--are less suited to this kind of production, but the other 9 songs are so wonderful, I can overlook this. A real bonus--this CD includes liner notes and complete lyrics in Spanish, with translations into English, French and German.

Pre-Met Debut Domingo: His NYC Opera Years 1966--1969.......2005-11-17
This recording is a fine memento of tenor Placido Domingo's first operatic performances in the US, as he was the principal tenor for the New York City Opera from '66 to '69 back when Julius Rudel was principal conductor and Beverly Sills its reigning soprano. Yes, these are live taped performances and as such the typical noises of applause and coughing pop up but any fan of Domingo, or Sills for that matter will eat it up. Roberto Devereux by Donizetti was the opera that earned Beverly Sills the cover of Time magazine in 1971. She performed the role of Queen Elisabeth and Placido Domingo sang Devereaux. Their on-stage chemistry was magnetic and their singing was unsurpassed. Here Domingo sings the Prison Scene. Domingo had sung Alfredo in previous Mexico City productions of Traviata but his first American Alfredo was with NY City Opera and here he sings with robust but elegant lyricism. He was singing Wagner this early in his career. Lohengrin was his firt Wagnerian opera and as the titular knight he sings gorgeously. Here we are treated to his "Das Sube Lied" with City Opera soprano Arlene Sanders singing a radiant Elsa. The most moving, absolutely the most inspiring "In Fernem Land" with its religious spark is pure gold in the hands of Domingo. Of course, Domingo excelled in all the juicy Italian tenor roles- Rodolfo in Boheme. His Che Gelida Manin is touching and poignant. His rendition of "Vesti La Giubba" from Pagliacci is a vocal homage to his idol Enrico Caruso and Domingo sings with stunning dramatic force. My favorite tracks are the excerpts from Massenet's Manon. Beverly Sills scored immense success singing Manon and here we see why. On a live recording, she pulls out all the stops and we see how she had the audience moved by her graceful but impassioned singing. Domingo was a supreme Des Grieux, and it is too bad he didn't sing the French-sung Des Grieux of Massenet's opera as much as he did the Italian-sung Des Grieux of Puccini's opera. The rest of the album covers scenes from Bizet's Carmen, with mezzo soprano diva Mignon Dunn as Carmen. Mignon Dunn was probably the sexiest looking Carmen but vocally there are things missing. She has the suitable voice but lacks subtleties and shades to the voice. However, it is still a fine Carmen, especially because Domingo is a superb Don Jose, a role he sang numerous times and was nearly a signature role for him. Domingo's Cavaradossi from Tosca is another signature role and here he sings E Lucevan La Stelle and the Act 1 Duet with aplomb. Enough said, folks.

Placido Domingo: Heir To Enrico Caruso's Legacy.......2005-11-12
RCA Gold Seal, its highest quality seal, released this album of Placido Domingo singing arias from Enrico Caruso's career. These arias are the staple of Italian tenor reperotoire and sung by a most virtuosic tenor, can make that tenor famous the world over. Placido Domingo filled Enric Caruso's shoes and is without question his worthy successor. The first aria is "Testa Adorata" from La Boheme, simply stunning in Domingo's hands. He masters Puccini's lines and breathes life to the text. The same applies to the following aria, the melancholy Una Furtiva Lagrima from Donizetti's L'Elisir D'Amore. The high point of this CD has to be Domingo's rendition of "Vesti La Giubba", Caruso's signature aria. Domingo was at one time able to imitate Caruso's technique but in the opera business one cannot be a copycat. Domingo's unique, individualized rendition is a different animal than the Pagliacci's of Giuseppe Di Stefano, Franco Corelli and Luciano Pavarotti. He favors a rich, dark and personally moving tone of singing, as if the attraction is not the beautiful and big voice but the emotional impact of the aria. Pagliacci, having learned that his beloved Nedda has been unfaithful, is of course crushed but he must nevertheless perform that night for the public. "The show must go on". Domingo's portrayal is second only to Caruso's. Des Grieux's aria from Manon's Act 3, Je Suis Seul is yet another introspective aria. Des Grieux has discarded Manon and joined the priesthood at St. Sulpice, foresaking his former life and former love. But he is still haunted by her beauty and fond memories of Manon. Placido Domingo sings French as beautifully or perhaps more beautifully than his Italian. He once again excells in such arias that require melancholy and thinking inward- the same style is used in moments of Aida and Tosca - "Celeste Aida" and "E Lucevan La Stelle". Celeste Aida is on here, and is another treasure in Domingo's vocal chords. He sings Dick Johnson from La Finciulla Del West in a heroic, and thrilling and romantic manner. The same applies for La Dona E Mobile, which is a more deceptive aria because Domingo makes the wicked Duke sound like a good guy. Domingo's voice was always suited to heroic and romantic leads. It is no wonder he was also considered the successor to Franco Corelli, whose own career was experiencing decline when Domingo's was on the rise. Often Domingo had to replace an ill or indisposed Corelli. The aria from Le Cid is thrilling. I'm not surprised that the extremely challenging aria "O Paradiso" from L'Africaine is on this album. Domingo studied difficult arias to sing as if it meant his life. He has no difficulty reaching for the high notes and tessitura in this aria. This is why he was able to sing harder roles like Calaf in Turandot (unfortunately Nessun Dorma is not on here) and Wagner heroes- Lohengrin, Tannhauser, Tristan and Isolde, Parsifal, Siegfried. The aria from Cavalleria Rusticana is a fine example of Domingo's verisimo style and is also beautifully rendered. Caruso sang terrific Don Joses in his career and it's sad that "La Fleur" is not on here. Domingo sang outstanding Don Joses in his own career. But this is a great album to get you hooked into Domingo's style and will definately entice you to seek out full-length recordings of the operas credited on this album.
