This studio album from soprano Angela Gheorghiu sometimes has almost the flavor of experiment as she tries to find new roles in the verismo repertory to replace the {|Puccini|} heroines with which she made her reputation. The results are a mixed bag, but for those specifically interested in verismo the album is probably a must-have: It's rare to hear a singer of Gheorghiu's caliber in novel works: a piece like {|Stefano Donaudy|}'s O del mio amato ben, one of the 36 Arie di Stile Antico, both showcases the alluring cream of Gheorghiu's voice and enlarges the concert repertory. In general, the lighter the piece, the better it works here. Vissi d'arte, from Puccini's Tosca, is right in Gheorghiu's wheelhouse, and in the colorful Ed ora conoscetela, from the {|Leoncavallo|} La bohème, she sounds terrific. The title track by {|Angelo Mascheroni|} is another standout. The project of moving the singer into heftier repertory seems only imperfectly realized, however; in a piece like Suicidio, from {|Ponchielli|}'s La Gioconda, Gheorghiu seems underpowered. The {|Prague Philharmonic|} under {|Emmanuel Villaume|} seems to try to stay out of Gheorghiu's way, which is not always to the good. For several groups, including Gheorghiu fans, this will be a most welcome release. Music>Music>Classical>Classical Artist>Class Artist, Warner Classics Core >3<
