Our Take

Angela Gheorghiu's "Homage To Maria Callas" is like a fabulous opera cake - rich, indulgent, and decadent. This album pays tribute to the legendary soprano in a truly unique and passionate way.

Gheorghiu's vocals are simply stunning, effortlessly gliding through each aria with power and grace. Her rendition of "Casta Diva" from Bellini's Norma is a highlight, showcasing her incredible range and emotional depth.

The orchestral arrangements beautifully complement Gheorghiu's voice, creating a lush soundscape that envelops the listener in a world of drama and beauty. The London Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Ion Marin, provides impeccable support throughout the album.

While some may argue that Gheorghiu's interpretations are not as groundbreaking as Callas's original performances, there is no denying the sheer talent and artistry on display here. This album is a masterclass in vocal technique and dramatic storytelling.

In conclusion, "Homage To Maria Callas" is a must-listen for any opera lover or fan of classical music. Angela Gheorghiu's homage to the legendary soprano is a fitting tribute, full of passion, beauty, and a touch of theatrical flair. Be prepared to be swept away by the sheer beauty of Gheorghiu's voice and the timeless melodies of Maria Callas.
