Like many operatic crossover efforts, this one has its ups and downs, but at least Robert Alagna is at home with this mixture of popular songs and more song-like arias, such as Mozart's Serenade from Don Giovanni and works by Bizet and Rossini. At times, he stretches his voice to the limits of his lower range, but the high notes are healthy and beautiful, and his manner consistently committed and passionate. The modesty and hominess of the acoustic guitar accompaniments have surprising charm, however limited the tonal palette may be. --David Patrick Stearns

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Roberto di Bella Napoli!.......2002-02-18

Exquisite collection of serenades and Neapolitan songs, beautifully accompanied by Roberto's brothers. Far more intimate than you might expect, but none the worse for that, and it makes you hope that Roberto might consider an entire album of Neapolitan songs. This one is worth buying just to hear how moving "Core 'Ngrato" can be when it's sung properly! There is also a very good CD booklet with pleasing photography, proving not only can they sing and play beautifully, but that they're a handsome family, the Alagnas!

5 out of 5 stars Beautiful performances by Alagna.......2000-10-28

Roberto Alagna give impassioned interpretations of popular Italian songs and Italian and French operatic serenades by Bizet, Mozart, Leoncavallo and Rossini. The tenor is accompanied by his brothers David and Frederico on the guitars. Even when the accompagniment have sometimes the tendency to a have limited color(compared to the original orchestral arrangements of many of these pieces) it is for the most part charming and give the atmosphere of intimacy that is related to these serenades. Among the best numbers are Maria Mari, A vuchella, Serenade Française, De mon âme from Les pécheurs de perles by Bizet (with a beautiful cameo appearance by soprano Angela Gheorghiu, Mr. Alagna's wife), Il mio nome from The Barber of Seville, and Lolita. Alagna's command of both Italian and French and the beauty of his lyric tenor make this recording a treat.

5 out of 5 stars Excelente Adquisición.......2000-08-20

En este excelente disco en el que se contiene una muy buena variedad de canciones consideradas como "tradicionales" dentro de la canción napolitana, Roberto Alagna hace gala de una gran calidad vocal además de hacerse acompañar por la guitarra con sus hermanos, lo cual crea una atmosfera muy intima y nos presenta una interesante alternativa al clasico acompañamiento de orquesta. Sin duda alguna una excelente compra para todos aquellos que deseen contar en su colecciòn con una verdadera compilaciòn de clásicos interpretados con gran pasión y diferente propuesta musical.

4 out of 5 stars beautiful vocal, background music weak.......1998-10-05

Every song is done extremely well except for the accompaniment. For the most part the accompaniment is very weak and non-supportive of this dynamic artist. It is alomst like he is doing it acapella.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Lush, Delightful Performance.......2001-07-01

This performance of a wide variety of classical compositions is indeed noteworthy. The beautiful mezzo-soprano voice that filled the Olympic Stadium in Atlanta with the "Olympic Hymn" is at its best in this lush, delightful selection that includes standards like Handel, Mozart, and Rossini as well as not-so-commonly-heard names such as De Falla and Duruflé.

Larmore's performance is not only noteworthy for its esquisite rendition and mood, but also for the fact that Larmore is reassuringly American. Breaking away from the sometimes icy rendition of her more traditionalist European counterparts, Larmore displays a vivacity that gives these beautiful classics a warm, comforting ring - without losing the power that has been composed into them.

Above all, this is best listened to at volumes high enough so that the power and feeling of her performances may fill the room - and not only fill the room, but sweep you up in this rich musical experience.

- Benjamin Gardner

5 out of 5 stars Enchanting.......2000-09-30

Jennifer Larmore's strong, intense voice is at times overwhelming because it positively fills the room. Best played at the highest volume your neighbours can tolerate, this lush, gorgeous, and bewitching compilation of Larmore's treatment of many opera standards is truly stunning.

I love opera but must admit that I am far from an aficionada about it. I try my best to learn on my own, and I feel that this collection was a great introduction by a great American opera singer. The entire CD flows together seamlessly, begging the listener (relentlessly!) to bury him or herself in its styling and in, of course, the key asset of the CD, Larmore herself. My favourite here is the intoxicating "J'ai perdu mon Eurydice" from the opera Orphée et Eurydice (which is an excellent complete opera... the version with Larmore and another brilliant American opera star, Dawn Upshaw.)
