Sarah is my favorite. Diva is great, but most of the pieces are on other CDs and I like them better.
I recently heard Sarah Brightman referred to as "the greatest sopranoalive today". Or, KristaSantilli. My list could be longer, but I believeI've made my point. TakeSarah away from recording studio equipment and sound engineers, and hervoice fades and flutters. I rate this album a five on a scale of ten. If you want to hear a great living soprano,try Joan Sutherland. Whoever thinks that does not know many sopranos. Or, Julieta Aleman.
Or, Kiri Te Kanawa. Or, Dawn Upshaw. Call Sarah Brightman what she really is: a commercially successful, but artistically mediocre chanteuse. Ray Harp, April 5, 2009
DIVA, THE SINGLES COLLECTION, is an excellent collection of many of Sarah's best work. Recommended for Brightman fans.
Sarah Brightman is probably the greatest female vocalist of all time, I would recomend her CD'd to anyone, if one is curious and can go on line and use You Tube and listen to her perform, I know you will agee.
I bought this for my 34 year old daughter who had never heard of Sarah. I think these songs are perfect for someone to grasp the essence of who she is and her talent. Just trying to enlighten the younger crowd to a broader range of musical talent.
