About
Giuseppe Verdi's operas are notable for their strong and interesting female characters. Countless operatic divas owe their fame to one or more Verdi operas, some of them having grown into real Verdi specialists acknowledged as the ideal embodiment of leading ladies in operas like La Traviata, Luisa Miller, Aida, Macbeth, Don Carlos and Il trovatore. This double album presents a number of the greatest Verdi singers, along with some prima donnas who are seldom thought of as Verdi exponents.

Opera Now October 2019
The selection of arias across two discs is worth hearing and the choice of singers offers some great voices recorded in their prime. All the singers were hugely well known in their day, though only one still performs, Krassimira Stoyanova.
