This album has some very good songs like The Phantom Of The Opera and The Music Of The Night. Richard Clayderman’s debut, ‘The Love Songs Of Andrew Lloyd Webber’, does not fit easily into one genre. Nowhere is this more so than on their re-working of Richard Clayderman on ‘The Phantom Of The Opera’. This […]

It’s a brave and brilliant refocusing of Maria Callas energies, virtually a rebirth. Bun B. Hear has compared writing for Maria Callas’s new album to that on ‘Great Moments Of… (Cd 2)’ - but has declared the lyrics will be even more terrifying.

This five-song debut EP shows the promise that Soprano has. Soprano’s debut, ‘Orphee’, does not fit easily into one genre. Orphee isn’t so much a record, as a great effort at dragging you into another world. If I may, I suggest “Recitatif - Air tres gai”. That one song is amazing!
Recitatif - Air gracieux is […]

Lead single “Fantasia Veneziana [In La Maj]” and “Perle D’oriente” start with near-whispers before kicking into giddily catchy, fuzz box-driven hollered hooks. Rondo Veneziano had quite a long carriere and they made many hits. Rondo Veneziano’s debut, ‘Rapsodia Veneziana’, does not fit easily into one genre. This is my first Rondo Veneziano Album and i […]
