dupidnavagog's Full Review: Cecilia Bartoli - A Portrait
OK, I am a classical music buff, but I would recommend this CD to even a casual or novice listener. You can hear he love Cecilia has for music, and after a while you may find yourself humming these tunes in the car....
I've always liked opera music, but to be honest listening to a whole opera is just way too intense. A friend raved about Cecilia, so I gave her a try. Portrait is a collection of arias mainly from the 18-19th century that, if you took voice lessons, you may be familiar with. Having said that, I will also say that these are not songs that are used in commercials and cartoons, so if this is your first foray into classical music, you probably have not heard these songs before. However, if you listen to this CD 2 times through, you will feel very familiar with these catchy tunes - they are very easy on the ears.
Please give this CD a try. Even if you aren't heavy into classical music, I think you'll be happy to have this one in your collection!
