In the late '90s, the meld of world and dance musics has come a long way. From its "ethno-techno" beginnings early in the decade to compilations like this, the integration now seems complete. So you can have Fatboy Slim remixing the Indian inflections of Tranquility Base, the Asian Underground of Asian Dub Foundation, Rootsman's dub, or "Ali Mullah," Transglobal Undergound's tribute to the late Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, sitting cheek to cheek with ambient sounds from Russia or Italian dance--and it all makes sense. The rhythms have become international, without any boundaries--and that's precisely the point. It is, if you want, the one-world ethos of the millennium, and even more hopefully, the sound of a world that might yet learn to live in peace. --Chris Nickson

    Album Description

    The Complete Caruso: Volumes 1 - 12

    The Italian tenor Enrico Caruso holds a unique place in musical history, as the first operatic singer whose recordings sold in millions, and who created an international reputation on the strength of these. Caruso's robust tone and musical sincerity made him both an ideal stage and recording artist, whose voice the primitive acoustic recording technology of the early twentieth century was able to reproduce with startling fidelity. The Naxos Historical Caruso edition constitutes the complete cycle of all Caruso's recordings issued in chronological order. In addition, the transfers have been immaculately undertaken by top sound engineer Ward Marston, unrivalled for his knowledge of the specialized world of acoustic opera recordings, and his rare ability to retrieve all of the music lying in the grooves of the original recordings. Naxos Historical's incredible price (12 CD'S FOR THE PRICE OF 10) puts this unique legacy of great singing within the reach of all music-lovers. This! complete cycle of recordings represents a major document in the history of sound recording, and one which no collector and enthusiast of great singing will wish to be without. "There is no series of vocal records that have a greater documentary value, that meant more to the development of the phonograph record, or that are as consistently capable of providing pleasure to lovers of great singing. ...One of the most significant recording industry events of the decade." Fanfare

    This may not be easy to get in the USA for very long.....don't miss it.

    5 out of 5 stars Essential edition for opera lovers.......2005-02-01

    This set gives you the opportunity to follow the entire recording career of one of the greatest singers in Operatic History. Enrico Caruso was the first superstar of the 20th century -- and this without the benefit of mass media. His person and his records were his greatest publicity.

    The set begins with Caruso's Italian made recordings. They show a great raw talent. The artistry is lacking with many sobs, over acting and mistaken cues. The 1902 and 1903 clearly show a tenor with a lot to learn. But learn it he did. His 1904 sessions show a mature artist on par with any heard since. His voice matures before your very ears and by 1910, you wonder if you will ever listen to any other tenor the same way again.

    The engineering used for this set is wonderful. There is no attempt at all to use the soundstream process of computer sound enhancement as heard on the RCA issued sets. These are near perfect mint conditioned discs copied by engineer extraordinary Ward Marston. They sound like natural 78s, they way Caruso himself must have heard the playbacks at the (RCA) Victor studios.

    Also included are outtakes and extra takes. There is a "Celeste Aida" from 1908, complete with a broken high note, previously released by RCA in a 1973 set commemorating the tenor's centenary birthday. But there are new treasures here as well, including extra takes of two of Caruso's greatest recordings, the Italian song "L'Alba separa dalla l'uce ombra" and an aria from Rubinestine's Nerone. Listening to them, one wonders what Caruso could have possible thought inadquate in those long lost altenative takes.

    Finally, there is the simple joy of hearing so many things so well sung. Caruso was the pinnacle of the tenor art. He can be compared to no other single tenor since ... he has the brilliant ring of Bjorling, the passion of Gigli, the beauty of Gedda, the youthful enthusiasm of Lanza, the warm tonal quality of Tucker, the pure strength of Corelli, the charasma of Pavarotti and the artestry of Domingo.

    Whether you are an opera fan, a voice fan or just a music lover. This set is worth every penny.

    Amazon.com essential recording

    From the youthful bloom and impetuous swagger of Enrico Caruso's debut 1902 recordings to the darker, almost baritonal overtones typifying his final sessions before the acoustic horn, the singer's resplendent vocalism and generous performing style remain the archetype for Italian tenors. As a child of the late 19th century, Caruso was prone to embellish upon composers' texts, yet his passion, communicative power, and soaring musicality transcend time. The Italian sessions from 1902 to 1904 and Caruso's recordings with piano between 1904 and 1905, along with two later sides, receive conventional, unaltered transfers. The remaining material is restored via the controversial Soundstream computer process, which fleshes out the lower partials of the voice while compromising its overtones, relegating the orchestral accompaniment to a rumbling backdrop rather than contributing partner. Yet many will find the Soundstream transfers easier on the ear. Those who wish to acquire the complete Caruso in a single package at midprice should not hesitate to purchase this significant set. --Jed Distler

    5 out of 5 stars No - the deffect is NOT on EVERY set!!!.......2006-12-08

    The deffect that some previous reviewers were so mad about did not happen to my set. After purchasing it for two years and listening to the disks every other day, they are still shiny and beautiful like new. You can't use the word "EVERY" so cavelierly, because you have not listened to EVERY set.

    5 out of 5 stars The Master of Italian Tenor Singing-Get it.......2006-05-20

    I have been collecting Caruso performance since 1960- of course they were on vinyl- I even had some 78's. I think the 78 and vinyl records produced a warmer tone, but it is a delight to have the Master's performances in one place. My vinyls are worn to shreds.

    Except for the lighter and bel canto roles, Caruso is supreme in the Italian and some of the French repetoire. Last night I listened to the Quartet from Martha for the first time in many years. Caruso sings about a 20 second phrase beginning "Dormi
    Pur" which had me in tears as it had in the past. The ease of Caruso cadenzas in "La donna e Mobile" and "Una Furtiva Lagrima" put most tenors with a 1/4 of Caruso's vocal weight and size to shame.

    There are no American/Swedish or any other hyphenated Carusos. He was unique and I am a Bjoerling freak. I find it
    odd that a previous reviwer mentioned Mario Lanza favorably with Caruso.

    Lanza rarely performed on an opera stage. On recording his voice seems large but his singing is amateurish. He squeezes, forces, barks and croons. At times one can hear a pretty sound but I do not consider him a major opera singer.

    Rudolf Bing's comment that people who heard Richard Tucker were just as lucky as those who heard Caruso is silly. Tucker was excellent but NOT Caruso.

    Lauritz Melchior, in the heavy German repetoire and to my mind Otello, is as unique and uncomparable as Caruso is in the Italian and French repetoire.

    1 out of 5 stars WARNING-All Original Releases Corrode Because of Dye.......2005-04-24

    EVERYONE who bought the ORIGINAL multi-disc release has seen each disc become unplayable through corrosion because of a dye used to print the label side. BMG is well aware of this and has been inundated with demands for replacement.

    This set is available in a subsequently released BUDGET compilation, also available through AMAZON. There are no manufacturing defects.

    5 out of 5 stars from a 13 year old kid.......2005-03-15

    it is a great cd. when they say complete, they mean complete! 12 cds about 70mins each. comes with booklet with recording dates and matrix #s. in cardboardy-leather box. i did not have a probelem with red batwing labels making a clear film. the set is from the 70's but is the quality that great any way? contains private recordings.

    4 out of 5 stars There are other, better options.......2004-05-17

    I was surprised to see that this set was still available. These transfers were made in the late 1970's at the dawn of the digital era and were state of the art for that time. But in cleaning up the surface noise these old digital transfers seriously flatten out the sound of Caruso's voice.

    I would suggest that people interested in Caruso check out the "complete" Caruso series on Naxos with new digital restorations by the great sound engineer/artist Ward Marston. On the Naxos CD's the voice is preserved in a much more natural and subtle sound while all of the other noises are eliminated as much as possible. It's much more satisfying and true to the original recordings than these old RCA transfers. If you're going to spend $130.00 you should have the best available. It's only fair to Caruso.

    In the late '90s, the meld of world and dance musics has come a long way. From its "ethno-techno" beginnings early in the decade to compilations like this, the integration now seems complete. So you can have Fatboy Slim remixing the Indian inflections of Tranquility Base, the Asian Underground of Asian Dub Foundation, Rootsman's dub, or "Ali Mullah," Transglobal Undergound's tribute to the late Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, sitting cheek to cheek with ambient sounds from Russia or Italian dance--and it all makes sense. The rhythms have become international, without any boundaries--and that's precisely the point. It is, if you want, the one-world ethos of the millennium, and even more hopefully, the sound of a world that might yet learn to live in peace. --Chris Nickson

    I heard this disc one night and have been TRYING to get my hands on a copy ever since. It's a great compilation of funkdified global mixes. I can't understand why it's so difficult to get! Hopefully it will go into wider release soon - but it's worth getting on the special order list for this gem.

    4 out of 5 stars A musical oddysey.......2003-06-05

    If you like music without boundaries, international ethnic based music with a groove, than you have to get this fab disc. On this disc the remixed blend of East meets West music is a shootout at the Dance Floor Corral. This disc from the late 90's features some of the most innovative and promising artists from the dj international set. Featuring groups and dj's like Asian Dub Foundation, Loop Guru, Fun'da'mental, Tranquility Bass, Fat Boy Slim, Transglobal Underground, Emperor Sly, The Rootsman and many others, this is a double disc that will take you on a musical journey to lands unknown. The Eastern vibe abounds, complimented by drum 'n bass, dub, post psychedelic beats, laid back chill out grooves that will gently massage your mind. As you listen to this disc the music has a flow, an endless seemless musical track, seperated by beginnings and endings that capture National Geographic highlights of your mind to a digital beat. If you like sitars and tablas blending with back beats, flutes and exotic drum sounds, intertwined with natural forest sounds, spacy dance grooves that echo far away lands, and in general a musical mix that defies categorization than you will love this disc. Most of the songs, and there are plenty of them, (twenty one songs), are of the mellow variety but there are some that are more uptempo. This is a musical experience. It is one that sounds at once familiar even though you may have never heard it. The meshing and mixing of styles is a must for world beat fans. If the music weren't enough, an additional bonus is included. It is an enhanced CD that features a Phat Boy Demo with track samples to fool around with on your computer and add your own touches to the mix. Also there is a computer game of Breakout and artists bio's for your reading pleasure. All in all, this is a very good CD and a good value for your buck.
