Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: She is an amazing singer. One of the greats? Comment: In this collection of bel canto favorites, Natalie Dessay gives us a record of the buzz she has been generating for several years. She is truly an intelligent singer with a powerful, appealing instrument. She navigates some of the most demanding coloratura passages with grace, courage,insight, and total musicality. Her Donizetti is particularly strong, particularly the selections from Maria Stuarda and Cap/Montecchi--but most amazing is her Mad Scene from Lucia. Her Verdi and Bellini selections are also impressive. It is too early to tell how well she shall be remembered given some of the earlier greats, but it is undeniable that she is extremely talented. In many ways she appears to combine the best qualities of Callas, Sutherland, Sills, and Anderson. Having seen her on stage years ago, I am happy to notice that the high quality of her acting does come through on record. This is a singer keep watching. More Reviews
