Domingo is in superb voice; the sound seems golden as never before. Yet at the same time, it’s a voice that’s being more astutely deployed. To take that cruellest of all challenges to a studio-bound Otello, the great Act 3 soliloquy ‘Dio! mi potevi’, Domingo’s performance is now simpler, more inward, more intense. This is undoubtedly the best Otello on record since the early 1960s. - The Gramophone Choice
Excellent compilation of the greatest musicians of chanson and jazz music of France, Edith Piaf, Charles Aznavour, Georges Brassens, Sacha Distel, Charles Trenet and many more.
Georges Brassens was a French singer-songwriter and poet. He wrote and sang, with his guitar, more than a hundred of his poems, as well as texts from many others such as Victor Hugo, Paul Verlaine, or Louis Aragon. In 1967, he received the Grand Prix de Poésie of the Académie française. Between 1952 and 1976, he recorded fourteen albums that include several popular French songs such as Les copains d'abord, Chanson pour l'Auvergnat, La mauvaise réputation, and Mourir pour des idées. Most of his texts are black humour-tinged and often anarchist-minded.
