The opera album

"The three CDs presented here showcase the vocal talents of the great soprano Mirella Freni in her most successful stage roles. Pride of place naturally goes to Mimì (La Bohème), closely followed by Liù (Turandot), Micaëla (Carmen) and Violetta (La Traviata), but there are also parts like Butterfly, which she never sang on stage, and interesting recordings from the early years of her international career ... Her unique voice and her consummate vocal technique put Mirella Freni in a class of her own among 20th century sopranos".
