Customer Reviews of Opera Arias & Concert Songs
Real Verdi singing Thomas Hampson should be tied down and forced to listen to this great artist sing Verdi, THE WAY IT SUPPOSED TO BE SUNG. He would learn about phrasing, breath control, power, tone, artistry and drama all at the same time. Hampson can't carry Maestro Warren's scores for him.
Leonard Warren Had a Great Voice
I just read some reviews here that said the sound quality was not good on all the songs contained in this collection. Up to now I only have heard three of the songs on Disc 1...but they exemplify great singing. Those three songs from Pagliacci, The Barber of Seville, and La Traviata make this set worth buying in and of themselves. I read that Mr. Warren died at 49 years of age during an actual performance while singing on stage at The Metropolitan Opera House! That's quite a story! This set looks alittle expensive but I usually buy used---in this case $10 off the new price. I will listen some more to the rest of the set and ammend my review if necessary. But, for now, I'm very glad I purchased a sample of the beautiful voice and musical and dramatic artistry of Leonard Warren. Email:boland7214@aol.
A great collection
Leonard Warren was part of two great traditions: Firstly, from a tradition of American Baritones, featuring the likes of Robert Merrill, Cornell MacNeil, and more recently, Sherrill Milnes. Secondly, and sadly, from a tradition of opera singers who died when they should have been at the height of their powers: a list that includes Ettore Bastianini, Mario Lanza and countless others.

>This collection shows the artistry of Leonard Warren. On the first cd, is the work most people would recognize Warren for, Rigoletto, Iago, with a few roles he didn't normally play thrown in, such as Escamillio, and most interestingly, Wolfram from Tannhauser.

>The second cd is fun only if, like me, you like to hear opera singers singing, and singing well I might add, in a different medium. On this cd, Leonard Warren sings sea shanties, Irish songs, religious songs, all with that marvelous instrument of his. It was a side of Leonard Warren I Was excited to hear, to hear this American Baritone singing in English for once.

>It's fantastic to see an artist of his calibre getting the recognition he deserves, and the two cds are an excellent purchase.
