Review by Oscar August 10, 2005 (11 of 12 found this review helpful)
Performance:   Sonics:    
This is the best sounding Pentatone disc I have heard. Simply spectacular. Clear and detailed orchestra, gorgeous sound of the voice, good balances and good ambiance atmosphere.

The performances are great too. Federica Von Stade, american mezzo-soprano, is one of the most beloved artists of all time. She has this special gift of bringing light and smile to all what she sings. THis disc was, as I remember one of her first solo recitals. And it is a winner. Rossini and Mozart arias impecably sung, without any excess, just plain and solid musicanship.

With so many "over inflated" divas around today, this disc is a good reminder of where true art can be found.
