Arias for Lyric Soprano

Cantolopera is an exceptional new series of book/CD packs from Ricordi that offers a fresh approach to great opera repertoire. The books include versions for voice and piano of the world's most famous arias. The CDs feature two versions of each aria: one with a 130-piece orchestra providing accompaniments to allow the professional, student or opera fan to practice, and another sung by an established artist for reference. Each volume contains the lyrics of the arias, plus a short plot summary and background information on the orchestra and the performers. Contents: Je dis que rien ne m'épouvante (Carmen) • Ebben? N'andrò lontana (La Wally) • Qual fiamma...Stridono lassù (I Pagliacci) • O mio babbino caro (Gianni Schicchi) • Mi chiamano Mimì (La Bohème) • Donde lieta uscì (La bohème) • Tu che di gel sei cinta (Turandot) • Mercè, dilette amiche (I vespri siciliani) • Egli non riede ancora...Non so le tetre immagini (Il corsaro).
