Rich Romances, rich voice!
Twenty years ago Dmitri Hvorostovsky first recorded Tchaikovsky songs for Philips, just having won the Cardiff Singer of the World Competition. It’s remarkable how little his voice has aged since then. If anything, the dark, full vibrato is even more under control at the very top of the register. Hvorostovsky has added many of the more unconventional Tchaikovsky songs to his repertoire since that first recital disc. It's a feast to listen to the richness of Tchaikovksy's Romances, sung by this rich voice. Here we have 24 songs, and every sparkling aspect of Tchaikovsky's art comes along. There are dark numbers (but Hvorostovsky does not make them too dark); there are cheerful songs, like the famous 'Serenade of Don Juan'. If you like Tchaikovsky's music, sung in a beautiful way, buy this record and enjoy yourself!more....
