 voices from the past September 11, 2015 By linda m. (claymont, DE) See All My Reviews "I bought this CD,and was not disappointed, for the voices from the past that I don't have in my collection. Also, the sale price was outstanding!" Report Abuse
 Essential Mzart Opera July 19, 2015 By Rex Shields (Victoria, Australia) See All My Reviews "Some sublime singing on this set, sung by some great singers of the present and past. How can you go past Mozart opera anyway. Recommended for any Mozart lover." Report Abuse
 Very nice. June 30, 2015 By Ralph Miller (Vallejo, CA) See All My Reviews "If you want to cut to the chase, and skip the boring recitative, this is your ticket. Of course a few moments you wish were included are not, but we can't have everything. It's definitely worth the money, especially when the amazing George Solti was conducting." Report Abuse
