5 out of 5 stars Essential for the chansom junkie. Buy It........2006-10-25

'Poulenc Melodies' performed by a really impressive lineup of vocal talent including Elly Ameling and Nicolai Gedda is exactly the kind of recording you need if you are compulsive about having 'complete' collections of things. This shows a range of composition which smaller releases such as single CD 'Voyage a Paris' (Hyperion, with Felicity Lott and Graham Johnson)can give us. For starters, many of these chansom showed a lot more evidence of more modern stylings and a far greater range of interpretation. In fact, I even had to check the lyrics in the included booklet to verify that on some songs, the performers were singing in French. Even though I have a smattering of knowledge of French, I would have sworn that the singers were performing songs in Russian.

I am happy that all four discs run for more than 60 minutes. No cheap short changing here. If you don't want to spring for the large set, the Hyperion release is great, but this is worth every penny.

4 out of 5 stars Almost completely wonderful.......2005-04-29

Its very considerable advantage lies in its completeness. Poulenc was one of the very greatest songwriters of any era. If you have no Poulenc songs in your collection, start here. The recommendation of Kruysen is a fine one, but only after you have heard this as a basis of comparison. Of Ameling, Senechal, Souzay, Gedda, and Parker, the only disappointment is Parker, who - I'll just say it - sings with his usual bleat. Souzay is a shade past it in vocal quality, but he still understands these songs as well as anybody, with great declamation (and that, after all, is what most of French singing is about). The dryness of the voice is nowhere close to disastrous, as it might have been in Italian opera. Indeed, it lends an air of life lived, without excuses. Gedda is okay. The standouts are Souzay, Ameling, and Senechal. Baldwin accompanies superbly.

5 out of 5 stars Indisputable Gallic flair.......2004-06-06

These performances are piquant and stylistically right on target. Even if Souzay is past his best here, he brings a lifetime of experience to bear and the other performers are wonderful. Ignore the curmudgeon who blasted this set. You will enjoy this tremendously if you love Poulenc.

4 out of 5 stars Idiomatic, fresh, cleanly recorded.......2001-05-12

This is a fine set. Dalton Baldwin accompanies each singer with clarity and zest. And who can resist the affectionate singing of the likes of Nicolai Gedda and Elly Ameling? The "melodies" themselves are magnificent--among Poulenc's finest creations. Whether you have other performances of these works or not, I think you'd be pleased with this beautifully recorded set. Certainly the 70's-vintage performances are more individual in profile, more "romantic," if you will, than those conjured by most of the "anonymous" singers of our own age. Recommended with enthusiasm.

2 out of 5 stars the best songs ever ruined by uneven performing.......2001-05-05

This is a warning for all Poulenc fans NOT to take the bargain route and purchase this immense collection -- you might think you're getting a great deal but: the singing and pianism is substandard and doesn't do the music justice (remotely). Songs like Bonne Journe'e or Ho^tel are all but ruined... Here's what to buy: Bernard Kruysen's CD of selected Poulenc masterpieces (favoring the Elouard settings)... nobody will ever come close to Kruysen in interpreting Poulenc. Avoid THIS CD. They still get 2 stars for (1) being encyclical and (2) delivering clear and even sound quality.

5 out of 5 stars Richard Anthony the Tony Bennett of France.......2000-08-11

Richard Anthony's CD Les plus belles chansons is an assortment of American, English, and French rock and roll and folksie songs. If you love Tony Bennett and Frank Sinatra's style of music, then music lovers will like this album. The titles include:

Itsy bitsy, petit bikini (itsy bitsy polka dot bikini) ; Fich'le camp Jack (Hit the road jack) ; J'entends siffler la train (500 miles) ; C'est ma fete (It's my party) ; Et je m'en vais ; Aranjuez mon amour ; Le sirop typhon ; Na na he he espoir (Na, na, na, hey, hey, goodbye) ; Ecoute dans le vent (Blowing in the wind) Lundi, lundi (Monday Monday) ; Fille sauvage (Ruby Tuesday) Sunny ; Je me suis souvent demande Elle a des yeux d'ange ; Viens ; Jamais je ne vivrai sans toi (You don't have to say you love me)

From the rock and roll songs to the romantic ones, Richard Anthony does a trememdous interpretation of the oldies, even though at that time they were new. The J'entends siffler le train will remind music lovers of Peter Paul and Mary ; Lundi, Lundi of Mamas and the Papas; Ecoute dans le vent of Bob Dylan. But the two favorites for my part are the haunting melody of Aranjuez mon amour, and the popular Jamais je ne vivrai sans toi (You don't have to say you love me). To hear this song in French truly makes this indeed a romantic song.

I recommend this CD to all. And you don't have to understand the words ; the music and the voice of Richard Anthony tells it all.

5 out of 5 stars A Superb Album.......2005-08-09

Isabelle Aubret is one of the living "grandes dames de la chanson française". In this particular album, she is one of the great female interpreters of Brel, Trenet and Gainbourg for their compositions and is a great interpreter of Prévert and Aragon's lyrics into songs. This album represents the best of their works as well as hers.
Isabelle Aubret is a great reminder of Jacqueline François, Line Renaud, Françoise Hardy, as she displays a warm and soothing voice, and a flair for "bluesy" melodies.

This album contains great gems: "La source" , "Que serais-je sans toi", "Ne me quitte pas", "Les vieux", "Que c'est beau la vie", "Amsterdam", "Sous le ciel de Paris" and the list goes on.
I highly recommend this album.

    5 out of 5 stars The Essential Coloratura Album.......2007-02-16

    The artistry of Rita Streich presented in this multi-disc set represents an art that in all likelihood would not return: the Viennese school of coloratura and lyrical singing.
    Together with Elisabeth Schwarzkopf, Rita Streich studied voice with Maria Ivogun, a great coloratura soprano of the German-Austro school. Together with her colleague, Streich excelled in the Viennese-style coloratura singing. This album presents her wide range of repertoire from Austro-German to French to Italian opera; from classical opera to romantic Strauss operetta; from lieder to folk songs.
    What this album does NOT include is Streich's Russian repertoire, some thing that, owing to her maternal descent, she was most adept at.
    Unlike Schwarzkopf, Streich owned a voice that is out-right lyrical. It is even lighter, even more agile, even more silvery, though not as forceful as Schwarzkopf's on demand. Listen to her delightful "Bastien und Bastienne", her Mozart concert arias and enjoy her highly articulated, musically refined delivery. It is the exemplary Viennese singing. Her soubrettes as well as lyrical heroines are nothing short of being superb.
    Not being as internationalised a singer as Schwarzkopf, Streich nonetheless was a representative figure of Viennese coloratura singing. Some times I would even feel that her coloratura is even more superior to that of the great dramatic coloratura of the 20th century, Joan Sutherland, again a very much more internationalised singer than Streich.
    If you are undergoing voice training, this box set is essential.
