{"product_id":"luciano-pavarotti-the-best-farewell-tour","title":"Luciano Pavarotti: The Best (Farewell Tour)","description":"Amazon.com\n\nAnyone discovering this album who had never heard or heard of Luciano Pavarotti would immediately recognize greatness, a one-of-a-kind, one-per-generation (maybe) talent and personality that commands attention, respect, and yes, even love. These 35 selections are an astonishing achievement: Taken, for the most part from the tenor's prime--the 1970s and '80s (although there are four earlier and three from 2003)--what we hear is golden tone, impeccable diction, an innate sense of style and line and where the music should be going, absolutely natural phrasing, an evenness of production from C to (shining) C, and an ability to communicate warmth, passion, and the sheer love of music-making. The first CD is devoted to opera, with a dazzling \"La donna e mobile,\" a smooth-as-silk \"Una furtive lagrima,\" the famous aria from \"La fille du regiment\" with nine high Cs, \"Nessun dorma\" and many more. The second CD is mostly songs (\"Torna a Surriento,\" \"La danza,\" \"O sole mio,\" etc.) sung with élan and flawless style, plus a couple of ghastly pop tunes (from 2003); to make up for them, we get a bonus--the three arias from Pavarotti's first EP from Decca, recorded in 1964--\"E lucevan le stelle\" and two arias from Rigoletto. Bravo, Pavarotti--we miss you already. --Robert Levine\n\nProduct description\n\nPAVAROTTI LUCIANO THE BEST (2CD)\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0007V5WB4\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B0007V5WB4.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio CD\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
