Fabulous, REAL music!!5
As a novice listener of opera, this collection has been ideal in learning to appreciate the wealth of fantastic music that is out there. I can heartily recommend this!!

The Best Selection of Opera on any Album5
I have never found such a wonderful mixture of popular opera classics in one album. I will be pleasantly surpised if it will ever be surpassed.
