Now I understand! April 11, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I grew up on opera but not on Maria Callas. Joan Sutherland, Schwartzkoff, Victoria Los Angeles, and Mady Mesple (to name a few) crowded the airwaves of our home growing up. I had heard that Maria Callas was THE Diva of opera and bought one of her obscure recordings from a low budget bin while in Paris 10 years ago. It didn't impress me that much. Perhaps it was recorded during her voice decline. I could certainly tell she had a powerhouse voice but many of those arias were unknown to me and I didn't connect all that well with the CD.
After reading some of these reviews I decided to give her one more chance. Surely 50 million opera fans can't be all wrong! So I bought this disc and listened to it the other day. There are plenty of pieces to listen to and her voice is a force to be recond with. I get it! She was truely great; as any opera buff will tell you - and rightfully so!

Callas is so incredible. No one can touch the Pathos is her voice. This CD is a great collection of her works. But don't stop here keep buying her up!

Audio beauty and magnificence, Maria Callas March 31, 2007 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
There are moments on this recording that are virtually audio heaven. Ms. Callas' voice goes beyond the normal concept of beauty.
