A great introduction to beautiful opera pieces. November 4, 2009
Steven A. Pinkal
The Very Best of Maria Callas is a great mix of the various and the most popular opera musical masterpieces. The vocals stylings are done by the origional and the best, opera extraordinaire singer, Maria Callas. A great introduction to opera and famous opera pieces. If you are curious about opera, this is a great start. I am sure you will agree, it is most entertaining and enjoyable.

I love this CD. It includes the best performance of romantic heroines in opera by Maria Callas. I really enjoyed it and each time of listenting can be more understanding this great artist.

I grew up on opera but not on Maria Callas. Joan Sutherland, Schwartzkoff, Victoria Los Angeles, and Mady Mesple (to name a few) crowded the airwaves of our home growing up. I had heard that Maria Callas was THE Diva of opera and bought one of her obscure recordings from a low budget bin while in Paris 10 years ago. It didn't impress me that much. Perhaps it was recorded during her voice decline. I could certainly tell she had a powerhouse voice but many of those arias were unknown to me and I didn't connect all that well with the CD.
After reading some of these reviews I decided to give her one more chance. Surely 50 million opera fans can't be all wrong! So I bought this disc and listened to it the other day. There are plenty of pieces to listen to and her voice is a force to be recond with. I get it! She was truely great; as any opera buff will tell you - and rightfully so!
