Some old favourites, and some unfamiliar, enjoyable voices a
Rob Pollock | 03/11/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This compilation has the usual songs that immediately bring the name of composer Victor Herbert to mind - Ah, sweet mystery of life, I'm falling in love with someone and Tramp, tramp, tramp - with such well known voices as those of Macdonald, Eddy and the famous tenors, Richard Crooks, Richard Tauber and Charles Kullmann.



Perhaps of greater interest to many listeners will be the relatively seldom heard artists, such as John McHugh, Florence Easton and Florence George. All three have very pleasant voices and aural personalities.



It is a somewhat mixed delight to hear Amelita Galli-Curci, John McCormack, Alma Gluck and Richard Werrenrath in recordings from the acoustic era. My personal favourite from that group is Galli-Cutci's charming version of A kiss in the dark.



Altogether, a well chosen mixture of the familiar and the out of the way, carefully and well re-recorded."

"A masterful, melodic American composer is joined with iconic performers rendering his works. There is nothing more to be said."
