CD Reviews

Beware!

11/17/2001

(2 out of 5 stars)

"I'm a great fan of Guiomar Novaes and think she's not known and appreciated as she ought to be. Also, the playing on these discs is wonderful. So why do I give it only two stars? The SOUND! The selections from the Town Hall recital are all from deteriorated acetate discs, and the sound quality ranges from bad to gawdawful, which means all of one disc and part of another. The record company is kind enough to warn you about this on the cover, but I figure that Amazon customers need a similar warning. So I don't recommend this unless you absolutely have to have everything ever recorded by Novaes."
