    5.0 out of 5 stars Fine memento of a versatile artist, April 2, 2006
    By 
    Michel (Montreal, Quebec) - See all my reviews
    This review is from: Recital (Audio CD)
    A lot has been said about Anna Moffo's early vocal decline and
    mismanaged carreer but let's not forget what a lovely singer she
    was in her prime. This recital from the early 1970's let us hear
    "late Moffo" though she was not yet 40. There is a slight hoarseness
    and unsteadiness in the voice that was not present in earlier recordings
    but it is still by any means a beautiful instrument used with skill.
    This recital also reminds us what a verstatile artist she was - she
    sings arias from the italian bel canto and verismo repertoire, french
    lyric and also german operettas and she passes from one to the other
    with considerable naturalness, ease and charm.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Anna Moffo Recital, February 9, 2006
    This review is from: Recital (Audio CD)
    This disc is a compilation of several recordings made by Anna Moffo in the early 70's for the German label Eurodisc. By then her voice was getting a little ragged around the edges, and lacked the purity and richness of her recordings of the 1960's. However, her darker and heavier sound works well on such old favorites as "Vissi d'arte" from Tosca, "Un Bel Di" from Madame Butterly, and "Depuis le Jour" from Louise. There are several operetta selections in addition to the opera arias. I would recommend this for serious Moffo fans only.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Merveilleuse, July 19, 2011
    This review is from: Recital (Audio CD)
    Unmistakably ( the MOST BEAUTIFUL ) of quite the opera singers - And in more this record(disk) contain its best recital - Listen to 'Louise's air(sight)... NEVER ANYBODY SANG Him(It) AS ANNA DANS CE RECITAL (it is the paradise or it we entaine) similar for the air(sight) of " Linda of Chamonix " and the air(sight) of Nedda in I Pagliacci) This Singer Italo-Américaine is among American opera singer the one that I prefer with Léontyne Price and the supernatural June Anderson - This Anna Moffo's best record(disk) is inseparable of its first recital " La Bellisima " - Christian (France) - (excuse I of my bad Englishman but me serves me as a translator)
