CRITIC REVIEW:
"This Set ushers in a new golden age of timeless vocalists like Maria Callas, Elisabeth Schwarzkopf, Victoria de los Angeles, Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, Nicolai Gedda, and Boris Christoff, and then goes on to the subsequent generations of big names such as Franco Corelli, Plácido Domingo, José Carreras, Montserrat Caballé, Mirella Freni, and several hundred more, and including vocal stars of today such as Angela Gheorghiu, Roberto Alagna, Rolando Villazón, Natalie Dessay, and many others.
Because each singer appears only once, this set allows the listener to compare and evaluate the voices and singing styles of the whole of the 20th century. A 'must-have' for fans of vocal music!"
