A great addition.......2005-08-20

Joan Morris and her husband, composer William Bolcom, take another trip back to the early days of Broadway musicals and earlier. In the same groove as their earlier albums, After the Ball and Vaudeville. A great addition to your collection if you love this kind of music, performed the way it was meant to be heard.

Joan Morris and William Bolcom return to their roots.......1999-03-13

Back in 1974, mezzo-soprano Joan Morris, and her husband, William Bolcom, recorded "After the Ball," a collection of turn-of-the-century popular songs, some of which hadn't been recorded since the early part of the century, if ever. Now, after bringing their talents to the music of Jerome Kern, Cole Porter, Rodgers and Hart, and most recently, Vincent Youmans, they return to the turn of the century with this delightful collection. Note: no compromises were made with the original turn-of-the-century lyrics; this CD is not for those obsessed with "political correctness." But then, those obsessed with political correctness generally don't have much taste, anyway.

Operatunity.......2005-09-07

Excelent. I had oportunity to see this wonderful ladies of bella canto in Cable TV and for that reason I ordered the CD. Superb interpretation and recording.

Listening Pleasure.......2005-08-29

You frequently see the words "listening pleasure" used in a cliche' sense, but in regard to this CD, it is not a cliche'. For those who enjoy popular operatic and sacred set pieces, this is quite delightful. Both Gilchrist and Leigh have lovely instruments, but Jane Gilchrist's voice is somewhat fuller in tone and timbre. I have recommended this CD to my family and friends and I also purchased Gilchrist's solo CD, entitled Vocalise, from amazon.uk. Her voice is particularly suited to the Gilbert and Sullivan and Gershwin pieces on the recording. Nice to have new talent appear from such an interesting source as the Operatunity project sponsored by ENO.

distinct pleasure.......2005-08-25

The Operatunity competition, shown on PBS' Great Performances', was a class act, a really interesting idea that culminated with verve in a great success! I hope somebody puts it on dvd. This disc of the two winners of that operatic adventure is an introduction to two fine singers. Gilchrist has the more possessing instrument, not only capable of but seemingly born to a legato line. Her voice is the more Italianate of the two, and her singing soars. She's surely the more assured singer of the two. In fact, her inner assurance as a singer is astonishing, given she was working as a checker in an English supermarket when she entered the Operatunity competition. Amazing stuff. Leigh's voice is arresting, and often beautiful. She recalls a young de los Angeles in some ways, mysterious timbre, at times exhibiting a wonderful otherworldly quality. Her 'mio babbino caro' has beautifully lean lines and lustrous singing. The selections are well chosen, and the engineering is especially well done, with fine balances and loving attention to the singers. The whole disc is a kind of well sung opera primer, and picking up a copy will help the beginning careers of two fine singers.

Simply delightful!!!.......2005-08-16

Denise Leigh and Jane Gilchrist provide us with a very soothing and light performance. If you are a opera purist, this is not the CD for you. Although they don't have as much experience as other opera divas, they are able to achieve quality in their interpretation which any opera fan can certainly appreciate. My favorite songs from this CD are Je dis que rien m'epouvante and Dome epais. They able to transmit the feeling in their interpretations.

Both of them have beautiful voices, although I find Denise voice mellower and with great coloratura. Jane's voice a bit deeper and stronger.

I recommend this CD to those who are starting in the opera world and to those who simply love music and want to hear something light and beautiful.

Denise Leigh has a new Solo Album.......2005-03-01

'Pie Jesu' from Denise Leigh is AVAILABLE FROM AMAZON.CO.UK

The 'Operatunity Winners' recital album is a demo disc by any other name which was justifiably a run away success (topping the British Classical charts for six months and selling more than 100,000 copies. It followed their television discovery and introduced the (European) world to the voices of Leigh and Gilchrist, but despite being rich in colour and as varied as most recital albums dare to be it is not a good indicator of (either of their) possibilities or personal sensibilities, musical and dramatic - it dipped it's foot in the water and occasionally went for a swim. Now Denise Leigh's album 'Pie Jesu' is a collection which luxuriates in, if not the deep end, at least enough full emersion to satisfy our growing desire to hear this shining example of what a modern dramatic musical artist should be. She presents us with a programme of her beloved Baroque and Bel canto specials teamed with a few operatic favourite arias (more personally chosen than last time), some 'modern' classical song and sacred work plus the inevitable Christmas single.

Let's forget the idea that her voice is "light" in any negative sense. She is simply an artist who fits her changing sound to the music she is singing and it wasn't until now that she pulled out the stops and let her pipes fly. You couldn't want a more gutsy dramatic feel than that of 'Una Voce Poco Fa' or 'Je Veux Vivre'

Her interpretation of Puccini's 'Mi Chiamano Mimi' leaves behind any idea that Mimi is just a fragile flirtatious victim longing for the scent of a flower - here she is at risk of dying from the lack of sunlight while the fluttering of her Bambi eyes thinly disguises her desperate need for the poetry and the passion of her neighbour and her longing for the warmth and perfume of a good man in her arms and in her bed.

She is master of atmosphere (as in creation of, and manipulation of) - as we started to see on the Opertunity Winners album in the beautiful 'Song to The Moon' and 'Caro Nome', here in 'Summertime' with a phrasing which wants to be in time and wants to keep moving she sets up the oppressive heat and humidity of it's deep south setting and then sets out the crisp freezing stillness of a winter landscape and a fireplace seen from the wrong side of a frosted window pane in 'In The Bleak Midwinter'.

Certainly she is a flourishing musician.

Last Rose of Summer-Deanna Durbin.......2006-02-26

You have sent an e-mail inviting me to give my opinion on this
item.I am sorry I cannot go over 2 stars as unfortunately there
is a defect on last track of the record, precisely on the song
"The last Rose of Summer".Anyhow I intend to buy other Deanna
Durbin's records as I enjoy very much her voice, but unfortunately the wallet is empty now.
Thanks for all your help on trying to find "Shane: a Tribute to Victor Young"but no euccess. I will try to buy another item later.

Last Rose of Summer - flat and lifeless.......2004-09-16

This is a good CD only because of Deanna Durbin, but it is not a good CD for the following:

- It's stated right on the back of the jewel case that the source material used was "original 78 rpm records."
- The music is so compressed that there is no-longer any dynamic range left. I imagine the producers did this to eliminate any surface noise from the source material. But sense the source material was records you need to expect some surface noise, and to try and eliminate all of the surface noise is not good. Because the music becomes so compressed it starts to sound flat with no dynamic range at all. I understand these recordings are mono and not stereo, but there should be some amount of dynamic range to the sound. These recordings sound flat and lifeless.

Therefore, I do not recommend that you buy this CD look else where.
