5 out of 5 stars Complete Great Recordings.......2006-11-10

Roberto Carlos is the ultimate romantic. His songs charm the hearts of many in love with love. The ones included in this collection are his greatest and most famous ones. It's immaculate.

5 out of 5 stars Emotional.......2004-02-06

I first heard Roberto Carlos in Spain because my mom used to listen to his music. His music is like they say in spain, maravillosa y romantica que toca el corazon profundamente.

3 out of 5 stars Suave and Debonair.......2002-04-25

I first heard Roberto Carlos in the late 1980s when I was dating a fan of his from Monterrey. She sang his praises, but I was sceptical until we saw him in concert and I became a Roberto Carlos convert.
I never had any albums or CDs of his before, but did have a 120 minute cassette that her sister's boyfriend recorded for me. I listened to it fairly often over the years and recently decided to buy a CD since the tape was getting old. But where to start? He had unfortunately written down no song titles but I knew which ones I liked. So I settled on 30 Grandes Canciones to start.
OK, there are a lot of great songs here. Carlos has the right voice for romantic song and this CD is full of romance. But there are also a few dogs.
Let's start with my favorites. Most of them turned out to be songs I knew from the late 1980s and early 1990s. There are several of which I will never tire: Detalles, Si El Amor Se Va, and Amigo. Then there are those I like quite a bit: La Distancia, Que Sera de Ti, Cama y Mesa, Lady Laura, and El Gato Que Esta Triste Y Azul. Most of the rest I can take or leave. Carlos' voice is really at his best on those mentioned above.
A couple of stars are knocked off by the inclusion of a couple insipid numbers I detest. I never have liked Un Millon de Amigos or La Montana, but the crown for the cheesiest song on the album goes to Simbolo Sexual. The vocals and the arrangement are downright jejune!
Despite those few songs, I recommend 30 Grandes Canciones to anyone who would like a sampling of the work of a very suave and debonair Roberto Carlos.

5 out of 5 stars Because Roberto Carlos is the king?.......2001-11-26

This album is a true gift for the millions fans of Roberto Carlos around the world. Countain some of your classics songs and new hits, all in spanish. In Brazil, Roberto Carlos is called "The King", your voice and passion is a great influence for millions people around the world. This album show the why. You will undertand because the King sold 80 millions of records around the world.

5 out of 5 stars 30 grandes canciones.......2000-11-12

I followed Roberto Carlos for over 35 years of my life and until today I am still a fan. I've collected many of his songs in all formats. His voice is so beautiful in whichever language he sings. He gives everything into any song he sings. The writing and the meaning are very simple and to the point, yet strong and effective. He is an ageless singer who brought romance into everyone's life. His songs identified in all walks of life to all of us. To so many of us he is irreplaceable...I just love him so much! What a great artist and a legend!

    5 out of 5 stars Why 5... Find Out!.......2006-10-12

    This Aida is perhaps the best I've ever heard. Even in the libretto it states that it is a full-blooded performance. I whole-heartedly agree. Callas, once again giving her exciting performances in Mexico City, turns her Aida into the stuff of legend. Again. Del Monaco is the best of any Radames. Yes, Domingo had the dramatic capability, but Del Monaco's overpowering voice should well be the trademark of the overpowering Egyptian military leader. Dominguez is the best of any Amneris I've heard, and also is mentioned in the libretto as having "opulent" tones. The word "opulent" doesn't begin to describe the effect she had on me in "L'aborrita rivale a me sfuggia". In the "Rivedrai le foreste imbalsamate" duet with Aida and Amonasro, Giuseppe Taddei tops all expectations, blowing back even Tito Gobbi. Altogether, this recording is a must even for people who hate Callas. 5 stars.

    5 out of 5 stars Callas Aida, Mex. City, 1951.......2006-07-21

    Everyone is on fire in this performance. Singers today do not have that "fuoco". Thanks to recordings like these, opera fans of the post Callas era, like myself, can get a "glimpse" into her glorious past. Callas and Del Monaco soar over everything else in the second act! And of course, the famous E flat! O. Dominguez as Amneris! I became an instant fan; hard to find other recordings of her. Some of the reviewers refer to Anmeris as Simionato, it is Dominguez! Taddei is perfect as Amonasro - great visceral singing- no baritones like him around anymore. Who cares if the sound is not perfect? I like all the environmental sounds, it makes me feel like I am right there. I only listen to live stuff anyway, because it is the real deal; I find most studio recordings boring. It is the best AIDA I have heard. Get it!

    5 out of 5 stars Callas's most famous Aida -- all I can say is wow.......2006-02-17

    This 1951 Mexico City performance of Aida has become legendary, largely due to Callas's unbelievable performance in the title role. Aida was not a role strongly associated with Callas (the way, say, Norma was). She dropped it from her repertoire in 1953, only making a studio recording in 1955, which I always found to be a disappointment.
    But in this 1951 Mexico City performance, Callas was on fire. Her voice of course never had the glowing beauty of a Tebaldi or Price, but Callas makes her Aida a firy princess. Her "Ritorna vincitor" might be the best sung version I've ever heard. Rosa Ponselle and Giannina Arangi-Lombardi and Renata Tebaldi may sound more beauty but Callas inflects the text to great emotional effect. Her "O patria mia" is a rough moment -- high C was always a rough note for Callas, and she can't sing it "dolce" as marked in the score. But her Act 3 duets with del Monaco and Taddei are remarkable, as is her "O terra addio." And of course, she caps off the Triumphal Scene with the famous E-flat that lasts 7 seconds (yes I've counted). Legend has it that in 1950, when she sang Aida at Mex City with Kurt Baum, she was so annoyed with the tenor that she did the E-flat at the Triumphal Scene. It worked so well that the next year she tried the same stunt.
    The rest of the cast is strong. I prefer a Radames who is better able to control dynamics like Franco Corelli or Carlo Bergonzi. Mario del Monaco seems to sing in two ways -- loud and louder. But del Monaco is certainly stentorian and heroic and there just aren't voices like him anymore. Giuseppe Taddei is a wonderfully nasty Amonasoro. His voice practically drips hatred and bitterness. And Oralia Dominguez is not as well-known as the rest of the cast but she's terrific nonetheless, with a beautiful, powerful mezzo voice.
    The sound is admittedly bad, but the performance more than makes up for it.

    5 out of 5 stars All hail to the E Flat Goddess.......2005-08-23

    I have always love Aida I have heard 3 versions but nothing can compare to this. Although the recording quality is terrible, this 1951 gala captures The La Divina in the prime of her vocal prowess. The first time I heard the e flat in the Triumphant schene, my jaw dropped.I could not describe the feeling I had that time. I just closed my eyes and thank the Creator above for giving the world "Maria Callas the greatest suprano in living memory".

    5 out of 5 stars Nuclear Aida!!!.......2005-03-18

    Ever imagine a large voiced Callas singing Aida? Here it is! Ever wanted her paired with an amazing Radames with a large, robust voice? You have it here! What about an explosive Amneris? Oralia Dominguez is also cast in this performance! What about a 12-second, interpolated E-flat? Callas sings it, and with a huge blazing voice too! Very unlike the standard canary E-flats you hear today! What about a great performance and a dramatically convincing Aida with Giuseppe Taddei as Amonasro? Well, this is it! Although her fabulous studio Aida wasn't as accepted as the Price Aida, this live recording from Mexico puts Leontyne's recording to second place. No other Aida will be able to achieve such a miraculous job of singing the role with that kind of forza, and with that kind of passion. The studio recording with Callas is recommended too, if you want to hear the several colors of Aida.

    Robertos Carlos is always something already expected, that romantic style, the good guy. But this CD have something very special and precious : the bonus track A VOLTA.

    Don Carlos exists in several versions, in French or Italian (Don Carlo, in five acts or four. This recording (five acts in French) uses the original version composed by Verdi for a premiere at the Paris Opera in 1867. It is longer than the 1883 revision (four acts in Italian), but longer means better when we talk about Verdi's music, and the French prologue gives a more concrete understanding of why Don Carlos loves his stepmother, Queen Elisabetta, with a more than filial affection. There are show-stopping arias and duets galore, a striking scene in which the Inquisition burns a group of Protestants, echoes of revolt in the Spanish Empire, and poignant reflections on lost love. It is an opera whose true greatness is not yet fully appreciated by many Verdi fans, but this eloquent recording should help remedy that. --Joe McLellan

    5 out of 5 stars An Essential Recording, if there ever was one.......2007-06-30

    It has been tradition to perform Verdi's Don Carlo in its four-act Italian form, and when Carlo Maria Giulini reintroduced the first act of the score in Italian to the London public in 1958, the Italian five act version became an international success. Nineteen years later, in La Scala, Claudio Abbado presented a version that was completer than complete, and that is the version being used by the Met today (e.g. including an orchestral "overture" to the hunter scene that usually begins the opera). This 1996 recording, taped at the Theatre du Chatelet, is then a pioneer in a very narrow field that showcases Verdi's greatest ensemble opera in its original form. A decade or two earlier, Abbado had conducted a French version for Deutsche Grammophon with Domingo and a slew of other non-Francophones who were probably better off singing the Italian version of the work. Moreover, that version was incomplete. Another recording of the French version exists, recently released by Opera Rara in conjunction with the BBC archives, but the cast and conductor do not impress us is an opera where the emotional and musical language coalesces seamlessly in one of Verdi's finest music dramas.

    There are many things that make this recording work so wonderfully, one aspect of which is Antonio Pappano's conducting. If there is a finer opera conductor today, someone should let me know since Pappano has excelled in nearly every single operatic work that he has tackled to date, and that includes Puccini, Verdi, Massenet, Strauss, and Wagner. His conducting does not only have the poetry that Giulini so famously imbued the work with. It also has a drive and a forward propulsion that keeps Verdi's longest work running smoothly in both the musical and drama departments. I have never heard a more idiomatic conductor in this work other than Abbado and Giulini. Kudos as well to the magnificent playing from the Theatre du Chatelet orchestra.

    The other reason to get this set is for the magnificent cast assembled around the opera. If Roberto Alagna does not have the beautiful lyricism of Carreras' voice or the robust virility of Domingo's, he has a command of perfect French, excellent phrasing, and a surprisingly complete understanding of the character that makes his interpretation very appealing. One could wish that his top were as easy as the rest of his voice, but that is a minor complaint when you assess his performance as a whole. Karita Mattila is an absolutely alluring Elisabeth. It is a noble, beautiful, lyric, grand, reflective, and tragic interpretation of a role that sopranos like to turn into a mourning vehicle. I have never heard a more powerful and beautiful voice in this role (yes, that includes Caballe and Freni), and one must simply hear Mattila's top notes to hear what wonders she creates with this character. If the basic colour of her voice is not one that listeners would associate with a Verdian sound, then I would say that her voice is more kaleidoscopic than that. Thomas Hampson sings the role of the Marquise de Posa, and although there are several detractors to him singing Verdi, I can say that his French his excellent, that he is a sensitive singer to the text, and that he shows the true spirit of Posa through his singing. I would say that this is probably his best operatic performance to date. Jose Van Dam is perhaps the most noble and tragic Philippe along with Rene Pape, and one must hear his fourth act monologue and the "Lacrymosa" section during Rodrigue's death to truly hear what wonders this great bass baritone can do with this voice. It has a grace and grandeur to it that few basses, including Nicolai Ghiaurov and Raimondi, were able to capture totally in the role. Waltraud Meier may not have been fluent in the coloratura as some great mezzos like Bumbry, Simionato, Cossotto, and Verrett in the role of Eboli, but what she lacks in Italianate fluency she succeeds in dramatic intensity. Her "O don fatal" must be heard, and her plea with Elisabeth is one of her best moments in the opera. Erich Halfvarson is not the most memorable Inquisitor, but that is not a huge concern in a recording where everything works wonders, especially Karita Mattila's Elisabeth, Van Dam's Philippe, and Alagna's Carlos.

    This is an essential recording for everyone who loves Verdi and opera. Bravo to EMI for releasing this landmark performance!

    5 out of 5 stars Matilla and Meier.......2006-01-30

    I bought this recording to hear Matilla and Meier. Neither disappoints. Matilla has a lyric and generously full sound that reminds me very much of Leontyne Price's voice on her recording of this aria. Meier is not Bumbry or any of the others, but she is still amazing in her own right and is worth it. To give respect where it is due, I'll say Alagna is very good, as is the rest of the cast. This is really a solid performance, but the two leading ladies have got it all.

    3 out of 5 stars Great Performance, But Not Paris "Original".......2004-04-08

    There is no denying that this performance is well sung, with better French diction than the Abbado, and that it is effective as drama. But bear66 below is the only reviewer here that gets it right -- this is a composite, NOT the original 1867 version, and the fact that it has been promoted as such is frankly false advertising.

    The Prelude and Introduction, cut prior to 1867 is not included. Fair enough. But then in Act II, Posa's account to Carlos of his visit to Flanders is included: Verdi also cut this before the 1867 premiere. The Posa-Philip duet jumps to the 1884 version at the 2/3 mark. The mask changing scene between Elizabeth and Eboli is included, but the ballet is not, strictly contrary to Verdi's expressed intentions. A fragment only of the Elizabeth/Eboli duet, another number cut prior to 1867, is included -- there is no authority that I know of for its inclusion in this form. The "Lacrymosa" ensemble was also cut prior to 1867. The "marziale" section from the final duet is cut, something that was not instituted until the 1872 Naples revision, never for Paris. The ending is also not the Paris version which included a chorus of Inquisitors who try and convict Carlos.

    So what do we have? It is not 1867, nor is it the version Verdi completed in 1866 prior to the cuts. It starts as 1867, then reverts to 1866, then jumps ahead to 1884, then back to 1867, further back to 1866, then ahead to 1872 and finally 1884. There are significantly, no liner notes detailing this other than a vague references to "choices" having been made.

    The performance is still worth having, particularly since it contains passages not available elsewhere. I simply object to the dishonest way in which this has been presented to the public, particularly those who are less familiar with the history of the opera and take the "Original French Version" claim at face value.

    5 out of 5 stars Quite Excellent.......2004-02-16

    This recording is the only one that is recent at all of the French original of this work. Most reviewers have written extensively about this fact. The only thing we are lacking is the original ending (which I believe was cut even before the first performance, but was recorded in the Domingo recording of the French version of the opera; the Lacrimosa from the Reguiem is well served in its original setting). Since this is a live recording, there are some flaws. There are pitch problems, and the sound is rather distant, which in my view takes from the excitement that the audience most likely felt while watching the performance. I also feel that is one reason the conducting and the orchestral reading seem less involved, less alive, than it sounds in either of the Italian Studio versions, or in the full first French recording of the work with Domingo. This truly is an exciting score, and a great opera. It, however, is NOT Verdi's only French opera. His other famous failure in Paris was "Les Vepres Siciliennes." Unlike Don Carlos, "I Vespri Siciliani", as we have come to know the work, was never rewritten, nor did Verdi ever prepare an Italian version of the work. It was simply translated when brought to Italy. Though people think of it as an Italian opera, it too is every bit as French as Don Carlos was, even more so, for it was never officially rewritten to be an Italian opera.

    Don Carlo, though, went through extensive changes, some were for the better tightening the action and the musical thoughts; others were not an improvement at all. The Five Act version recorded by Guilini is an Italian version created by Verdi where he replaced the first act, but retained his changes in the other acts that he had written when creating the four act version. In this recording, as with the French version sung by Domingo, we are witnessing the original thoughts on the matter. The differences, excepting the obvious number of acts, are subtle, but noticeable.

    The singers do a wonderful job in this recording, and as with all live performances, there are warts. Sometimes the singers are not true to the center of the note, and sometimes they don't carry as well as they should (the grand inquisitor for one, his very low F below the cleff is not that well produced, but it is very audible; with our dirth of true basses these days, it is a wonder they found anyone who could sing the note at all). Yet, over all, it is a stunning representation of the work. If only, like one reviewer mentioned, this recording would be recorded in the studio so we could really experience the entire concept of the work. Singing is important to Verdi, but so is orchestra, and that is the area that most suffers in live recordings. The orchestra is seldom balanced as well as we would hope.

    I rated the recording a five star because it is worth it. It is a wonderful recording, and a super exceptional representation of a great opera by a great compose. Too often Don Carlos, especially the original French version, has been dismissed as "a failure", "ineffective", and all those sorts of terms, when in reality, even though the ending of the opera is dramatically weak, it is nothing of the sort. It is a very vital, exciting work, and the orginal concept Verdi created is in many ways far superior to what he did with it later. I would recommend it to anyone, and everyone, who loves good opera.

    5 out of 5 stars The Original Verdi Opera: The Best Recording.......2003-12-30

    Verdi's "Don Carlos" was his most ambitious and his longest opera, and this was pre- Aida. His Don Carlos was intended to be performed for the Paris Opera in France and to be specialized for the French taste of Grand Opera. In the mid 1860's, this genre was the most popular. The Paris Opera employed the best singers and paid the best wages. The world's greatest singers were drawn to the Paris Opera. A composer who created a grand opera, full of fiery drama, large cast, big orchestra and even a ballet sequence, was well-payed himself and well established as a leading composer (Giacomo Meyerbeer was the greatest in his day). Verdi wrote Don Carlos in French originally. Later, he wrote it in Italian, the version most perfomed today. But the Italian version is dramatically and musically incomplete and dissatisfying. This recording is by far the best. Robert Alagna is a leading tenor in recent times, dedicated artist and superb singer, Jose Van Dam is an excellent baritone and the rest of the cast, the soprano singing Princess Eboli and Queen Elisabetta are praiseworthy. The orchestration is excellent. Lost sections of music are restored and we get more of the passion that Verdi put into this costume drama.

    Set in the 1500's, the king of Spain, Phillip must deal with political instability, the Inquisition and a revolutionary idealist son, Don Carlos, the prince. The opera, true to a lot of Verdi themes, is dark and even melancholy. The Inquisition casts a dark shadow over the opera, providing a chilling and depressive mood. Don Carlos himself, though a good man and the hero we root for, is flawed and even lusts and loves the beautiful and noble Queen Elisabetta- his own mother. Princess Eboli, which requires a dramatic soprano, is a scheming and seductive temptress with a vengeance. The characters sing about their discontent with life- religions are failing in dark times, they have not found real love or meaning in life and what's more political problems surround them. They all long for death and it is the only thing they have in common. The darkest scene in the opera is the auto de fe scene. The Grand Inquisitor, the opera villain, orders the public burning of Protestants. The ending is ambigous. Nothing seems to be resolved- unusual for Verdi opera which either end tragically or happily. Don Carlos is saved from death but the ideals he struggled so hard to make real were never established.
    All in all a great opera. The best in fact.

    Jesus Cristo was a big hit but all the other songs in this album are so beautiful and memorable songs. Ie. "O Astronauta" and "Preciso lhe encontrar" are so deep and one of those 70's compositions that make us dream the way the author was dreaming on those beautiful years. If you are a Roberto Carlos fan just listen to this one!

    Antonio Carlos Jobim is remembered as one Brazil's greatest composers. He spearheaded the creation of bossa nova nearly a half century ago; he was also a musician whose talents extended far beyond that of a composer. His training was in classical music and he'd been involved with large-scale orchestral collaborations for his work over the years. This posthumous effort, recorded live in 2002, highlights many of those large-scale works, offering lush arrangements by the maestro himself, Claus Ogerman, and Nelson Riddle, as well as new charts by son Paulo Jobim and Mario Adnet. In addition to classical arrangements of such classics as "A Felicidade" and "Garota de Ipanema" ("The Girl from Impanema"), previously unreleased pieces "Preludio" and "Lenda" make their debut on this double-disc collection. This large canvas of sound deftly illustrates the beauty of Jobim's melodies, but the composer's majestic sense of harmony is really highlighted, thus offering up the biggest revelation of the project. This is the best re-imagination of the composer's work since Morelenbaum/Sakamoto's Casa. --Tad Hendrickson

    5 out of 5 stars In Concert With The Sun, Moon, Stars And A Heavenly Choir, Everytime Someone Enjoys Symphonic Jobim, An Angel Gets His Wings!.......2007-06-21

    Jobim loves people, and gets excited about all kinds of things, I'm sure there's certain pieces by Debussy and Ravel that made Jobim red in the face because they are so beautiful.

    How does an Artist manage to be influenced and still a make a work of art their own?

    Love and desire.

    Symphonic Jobim strikes me as being very Nationalistic, a sort of Spiritual road map to the heart of the World, and what better way to celebrate one's roots by drawing on the panorama of Rio and Brazil, or, Brasil.

    Frank Loyd Wright once said, Architecture is frozen Music. Jobim went on record, Music is frozen Architecture!

    Thanks, Tom!

    Historians say the height of Civilisation is the drawing in and taking out of water, music is like water, it comes in waves, when I listen to Symphonic Jobim all the public works are in place and working smoothly.

    I was raised on Debussy and Ravel, but they're a little before my time, Symphonic Jobim puts life's panorama in perspective for me.

    I don't have to be near a pretty picture window to drink in the scenery when I listen to Symphonic Jobim, the beautiful motifs conjure all kinds of pictures and feelings.

    Every recording becomes a by product of the time period it was made, but Symphonic Jobim has a certain timelessness attached to it... it is a perfect piece of music beginning to end!

    Symphonic Jobim, a Project by Paulo Jobim and Mario Adnet, does much credit to it's Composer. Good Job!

    5 out of 5 stars Wonderfull songs.......2000-07-15

    I'm a musican (one man band) in Holland and I like the songs from Roberto Carlos because he has a wonderfull voice. Some of his numbers I like to sing on the stage with my own keyboard and piano. And there always some people ask me "who sing that song? Enjoy everybody who read this note!! h.wolleswinkel@mdw.vu.nl

    I've loved Roberto Carlos since 1973, but this album is a sorry step backward. Each track seems just like the others, slow, minimalist melodies, and fluffy sentiment. You'll get more enjoyment for your dollars on other albums.

    5 out of 5 stars Prima!!!.......1998-08-23

    I love almost all the music by Roberto Carlos, but this one is really special for me ... I fell in love again listening to these songs... Try it and feel the magic of Latin lovers holding tight and passionate kisses ....
