A gem from a master.......2005-10-15

On this records, Placido Domingo achieve one of the most refined homages to his musical roots, the zarzuela. He, having touched -and make us touch- some of the highest points of opera, put all his art and heart on the fourteen tracks of this CD. Pure art from a music not so well know outside the spanish-influenced word. A milestone.

Best zarzuelas.......2002-02-09

The best zaruela collection I have ever heard. I recommend it to all great music lovers.

Placido Domingo at his most sublime romantic performance........1999-06-27

This is a most to have, if you enjoy Placido Domingo's voice. Placido in this recording brings and interprets with great musicship the beauty of Zarzulas (Spanish light operas), to the world to enjoy. Placido Domingo is truly, the most perfessional tenor and conducter, of not just of our time, but perhaps ever! Bravo Maestro, que Vivas!

Zarzuela (bel canto in Spanish).......2001-01-20

This recording is one of the most beautiful ones I have ever heard. On most recordings that contain arias by different singers, you can hear great voices, average, and not so good ones. It is amazing that all the singers on this recording are excellent. This is the first time that I listen to Ms. Bayo's voice and it is so refreshing. Placido Domingo sounds so great singing "Leandro's romanza". The zarzuela is considered bel canto because of the style and vocal exigencies that wonderful music has. Like opera, the stories can be very dramatic, fun and mysterious. Montserrat Caballe, Carreras, Domingo and many other famous singers have done many recordings on it. Viva la zarzuela!!!

A Zarzuela Sampler.......2000-04-26

Viva La Zarzzuela Indeed! Zarzuela is to Madrid as Operetta is to Vienna, but this much admired art form has captivated audiences around the world, especially in Spanish-speaking countries. For this CD, Maria Bayo and a spirited group of other musicians, including famed tenor Placido Domingo, have joined together in a sampling of Zarzuela's very varied repertoire. Individual tracks range from sparkling Fandangos and Mazurkas to rhapsodic Romanzas and an entergetic Habanera. Bayo's lyric presentation of the "Song of the Nightingale (Cancion del Ruisenor)" is particularly affecting but Domingo contributes mightily to the CD's overall impact, most notably in the "Romanza de Leandro". Composers represented include such distinuished artists as Vives, Sorozabal, Breton, Barbieri, and Torroba.

A Great Introduction to Zarzuela.......2000-10-14

Audivis, a French recording company had done a great deal to introduce the music world to the delights of zarzuela. This CD have excerpts from some of the best moments of zarzuelas already recorded by Audivis, like La Tabernera del puerto, Luisa Fernanda, El barberillo de Lavapiés, Bohemios, La Verbena de la Paloma, Doña Francisquita and the Spanish opera Goyescas. These delighful melodies are brought to life with the voices and artistry of Placido Domingo and Maria Bayo. Domingo bring his beautiful sound and passion to arias like No puede ser from La Taberbera del Puerto and Romance de Javier from Luisa Fernanda. These two arias are two of the best tenor solos of the genre and really comparable to any Puccini aria. Bayo shines with her silvery voice, her coloratura is cristal clear in the solos from La Tabernera del Puerto and Doña Francisquita and her pianissimo singing is a joy in La Maja y el Ruiseñor from Goyescas. Apart from the solos, there are very fine duets, not only between Domingo and Bayo, but also with other artists, among them the great Alfredo Kraus. There are also some delightful orchestral preludes that bring the listener an idea of how diverse and energetic is the music of Zarzuela. This CD showcases Domingo and Bayo singing in their first language with skill and brio. And probably will bring the listener the oportunity to hear the complete works in a near future.
