Not one of my favourites.......2007-07-12

Yes Mr Safina has a lovely, powerful voice. Unfortunately someone has convinced him that his top notes are wonderful. I don't agree, his voice becomes strained. I prefer him singing more softly, but each song is sung in the same style. Each starts off very promisingly and then reaches these crescendos which don't sit well on my ears (and I don't have anything against crescendos). We all have different tastes and so far Mr Safina has been getting good ratings,except for one other; I'm just sorry I couldn't give him a higher score. I didn't even finish listening to the CD. Perhaps I will give it a another go later.
2007-07-16 I have listened again and I suggest that Mr Safina sticks to opera and ballads with better arrangements that suit his voice. His voice is too rich for the feeble arrangements and orchestration(?) on this CD.

Mesmerizing and Passionate.......2007-04-20

The first time I heard the song INSIEME A TE on a compilation CD, I was mesmerized - I had to find out who the singer was. I fell in love with that voice; dark, majestic, powerful and quite unlike the tenor voices I've heard before.

The very first time I listened to this CD in its entirety, I was totally blown away. The songs on this album are all superbly arranged and beautifully sung. I love the fact that they are all originals. Just listen to track no. 6 ('Stu Bbene) if you want to know just how passionate and expressive Mr Safina can sing.

I think he deserves so much more recognition than what he's getting now. On my part, I will keep buying his CDs. I'm eagerly awaiting his next album, Sognami, due out some time middle of this year.

Same Old Thing.......2006-10-13

Alessandro Safina sings some new songs, but with a voice we have all heard before. One reviewer says that his voice is like Luciano Pavarotti. I say NO there are NO SIMILARITIES between Alessandro and Luciano. If you like Mario Frangoulis You will love Alessandro because they have the SAME VOICE JUST LIKE EVERY MALE "POPOERA SINGER" THIS CD IS NOT WORTH BUYING!!

Truly an incredible artist.......2005-12-09

Alessandro Safina has incredible depth and his voice is indescribable. I think of him as dark and mysterious, as opposed to the more "pop" sound of some Josh Groban music or the lighter sound (compared to Safina) of Andrea Boccelli. Safina's music is very relaxing, but thought-provoking and never boring. His voice combines with the music on this CD in a way that makes me want to drift off into fantasy land.

Best of out Bocelli, Groban, and Frangoulis.......2005-03-10

I apologise for the length of this review, but I wanted to be as detailed as possible. This review is for Safina's albums in general, but a description of this album is included.

I love the operatic singing style voice, but I am not really an opera fan. I am however a HUGE fan of classical cross-over, or "popera" as it is becoming known. In fact, popera has fast become my favourite genre of music as of late. I like it because the singers sing beautifully, and the music has a more modern feel.

I own the albums of all the big popera acts including all of Andrea Bocelli albums from Romanza to Andrea, both of Josh Groban's studio albums, both of Mario Frangoulis' studio albums, and three Alessandro Safina albums. Because my car stereo plays mp3's, I took every song from these four artists and made one giant collection that spans 3 CD's worth of mp3's. I listen to them in the car, and all day at work. I can go days without hearing the same song. However, of all these artist, Alessandro is by far my favourite! I don't understand how it is cosmically possible that Andrea Bocelli and Josh Groban have become as popular as they are, yet hardly anybody has heard of Alessandro Safina! let me tell you why I like his work best.

I find that in describing Alessandro, it is useful to compare him to his above mentioned contemporaries. In terms of sheer voice talent, In my opinion, Alessandro is the top of the list. Alessandro's voice is amazing! The only one of the above mentioned artists who can even come close would be Bocelli. Bocelli can take his voice to magnificent heights when he wants to, but for the most part he sings low and only really pushes the limit on occasion. Don't get me wrong, I think he has a beautiful voice, and I love his work, but Alessandro ALWAYS pushes the envelope and sings with such bravado, passion, power, and control, that you are left in awe. As I mentioned before, I'm not a big opera fan, but if I had to compare Alessandro's voice, I would liken it closest to Luciano Pavarotti then his popera contemporaries. Also, Safina sings entirely in Italian with a few exceptions (you'll see as you read on). But Safina's voice is only the beginning; what about his music?

I really like the music as well, it very modern, and upbeat. At times it can even take on a modern new-age quality such as Enigma (like his song Il Mirto & La Rosa for example), in terms of combining classical influence with modern pop elements. Listen to the samples of "Saro Con Te," "Siena," and "Luna" from his self titled album, also known as "Release 1" to see what I'm talking about, as they are good examples. One of my favourite songs ever, Il Mirto & La Rosa, is also on this album.

This entire album is one great song after another. His other studio album "Musica Di Te" is a bit of a departure from "Realease1" in the sense that it is a bit more soulful and modern. If I had to compare it to something out there you may have heard, I would go with George Michaels really good stuff or Seal, I'm not saying Alessandro sounds like George or Seal, but it has that musical feel that artists like George and Seal are very good at. However, Safina's vocal style is just as powerful and passionate as his first album. If you do like me, and listen to both his albums combined in to one album, "Release 1" and Musica Di te" actually weave together perfectly, so don't get nervous about some of the reviews that say that both albums are drastically different; they really are not. If you like one, you will like the other. "Musica De Ti" like his first album is good song after good song. The only song I don't really like is "You Come to My Senses," which is Safina's only English song on the album. His accent is very heavy, and it just doesn't work well. But 1 out of 14 isn't bad.

"Alessandro Safina: Realease 1" and "Musica Di Te" are Safina's two main albums. The other's you'll find such as "Safina" or "Insieme a Te" are nothing new and have the same songs you'll find on Realease 1 and Musica Di Te, except for maybe one new song. For instance, the album "Safina" has the bonus track "The Music of the Night" by Andrew Loyd Weber. But if his English in this song is anything like his English in "you come to my senses," I wouldn't get it for that one extra song. But I haven't heard it, so I really can't say. The album "Junto A Ti" is The exact same as "Release 1" except four of the songs are redone in Spanish, and the track "Arrivederci America" is missing. If you speak Spanish and not Italian, get Junto a Ti, if you don't speak Spanish, get Release 1.

I hope this has been helpful to some. Believe me, These albums are fantastic.

Molto Volta Buona !.......2006-04-21

I was just hunting on some "Listmania" lists, and came across this artist. And WOW!!! Come to think of it, I discovered about 5 new singers on that list, but that is beside the point.
The point being that this Cd is amazing! I am unfamiliar with Max, but this CD has made me sit up and take note.
"Mondo Insieme a Te" was about the only song I could find to listen to, in preview of this album. And it just was so catchy I needed more.
Max Pezzali has a great smooth, deep singing voice. My brother thought he sounded a bit like Eros Ramazzotti, which I guess is technically true. But only to a point, Eros is more nasal and higher in tone.
I also liked how very catchy the chorus to many of Max's songs are! You hear this album two or three times and he is singing in your head before you know it!
I would totally recommend this album; and if you like Eros and Italian pop/rock you'll probably like this!

Simply Great!!.......2005-02-10

I am a big fan of max, and i have all the cd's, but this one, is something special. In this record, he's so mature. It still has the great lyrics and the adictive music that makes him so special. A really must have it.

Well worth the wait! Bravo Max Pezzali! A+.......2004-07-29

Well worth the long wait since his departure from 883, this album is fantastic! The sound is less young euro-pop and more contemporary adult, yet still has the fun, cheerful signature sound reminiscent of his previous days. The best way to describe this CD is to call it 883 all grown up! The song Fai Come Ti Pare is completely catchy and addictive. The words to Ecco Ti are so incredibly beautiful and thoughtful. The rich voice of Max Pezzali beautifully compliments the intelligent, well written lyrics. This CD has such a wide variety of sounds that I am certain there is something for everyone to enjoy here! Bravo Max Pezzali, keep up the great work!

Passionate and etherial!!!.......2003-07-23

Safina has one of the most beautiful and amazing voices and makes Operatic music cool and inviting to a younger generation! This album is by far one of his best with a variety of songs worthy of your adoration!

Highly recommended without reservation!

A must!.......2002-01-08

Have you ever thought of a link between classics and pop giving a quality and nice result? Here it is!. Safina surpasses all former singers with a incredible voice that comes to give a new chance to young people to appreciate something of quality; the combination in Safina's CD's is more than smart, and I bet there has not been for years before a better choice. This is the beggining of a "new age" and hope all young people can find the pleasure of listening this marvel (and maybe forget a little those "flower-of-a-day" singers elsewhere). This is for sure a good "tool" to help make "bel canto" affordable to everyone. Try it, and, good job Safina!

'Insieme A Te'.......2001-08-04

Wonderful.gives you goose pimples all over Perfect voice Tenor is the best I have heard (Look our Pavaroti)

Cheers thanks Ian

A Voice Ringing From Heaven.......2001-07-16

Alessandro Safina has one of the most powerful opera voices I have heard in years. It is like listening to a voice from heaven - powerful, yet peaceful and sensual. The sun rises and sets with his voice ringing in my ears. His voice carresses your mind as if he is singing directly to you from the skies above. I hope one day he comes to the United States and when he does, I will be there to meet this SENSATIONAL man. BRAVO Alessandro!!!!!
