Opera has always stood at the crossroads of music, drama, and passion. Since the earliest days of the art form, audiences have flocked to the theatre not only for spectacle but for the intense emotions expressed in song. Within the operatic tradition lie some of the most unforgettable melodies ever written-arias, duets, choruses, and overtures that have transcended the opera house to become part of our shared cultural memory. This three-disc set brings together sixty of those great moments. These are not obscure curiosities, but the most loved numbers from the Italian, French, German, and Russian traditions: works that continue to move audiences after more than a century on the stage, interpreted here by some of the finest singers and orchestras of the twentieth century.
