Customer Reviews:
Great representation of music from a great singer.......2007-01-07
A terrific album by a great singer. This album represents the considerable territory that Kiri Te Kanawa covers in here repertoire. She moves easily from Handel to Puccini to Jerome Kern. The insertion of classic show tunes as a part of this CD is a nice little plus. Some opera stars absolutely kill popular music by overwhelming it with operatic technique (listen to Richard Tucker singing "What now my love"; this is a pleasant little tune, but it can't stand up to Tucker's voice of steel, using all the power at his command). Te Kanawa sings these songs, for the most part, nicely and does not overpower them with operatic conventions.
She does a wonderful job on Handel's "Let the bright seraphim," displaying good coloratura technique, as a matter of fact. This cut nicely illustrates the clean sound of her voice. Her version of "Dove sono" (from Mozart's Le Nozze di Figaro) is a reflective rendering of this aria. The smoothness of her vocal line is wonderful to hear. Her version of "Vissi d'arte" (from Puccini's Tosca) also illustrates the art of Dame Kiri.
The popular tunes that follow are very interesting. She and Jose Carreras, at the outset, begin to overwhelm "Tonight" (from "West Side Story," with--by the way--Leonard Bernstein himself conducting this cut), making it appear that this might be one of those dismal pieces where opera singers wreck songs. However, shortly thereafter, the song becomes more Broadway than Metropolitan Opera, and that is to the good. Better still are Te Kanawa's versions of classic songs such as "Summertime" (from Gershwin's Porgy and Bess), where singing in a higher register works nicely and where she treats the song on its own terms; just so, Jerome Kern's "Smoke gets in your eyes" is sung so well. It is a poignant version of this song.
All in all, for those who are curious about Dame Kiri Te Kanawa, this is one interesting entrée. Well worth acquiring and listening to.
Beautiful voice, great collection.......2005-11-21
I think Kiri has a beuatiful voice, she is never overtly dramatic, but the people who call her the "church soprano" should hear this album. She can sing sacred music better than many other opera stars, but she is so great as Countess in Mozart's Figaro. This is a great collection of many different pieces, from operas, sacred works, musicals, all sung with lots of feeling. Let The Bright Seraphim is the aria she sang at the wedding of Princess Diana and Prince Charles, it is such a splendid performance. My favourite piece on this album is probably Mozart's Laudate Dominum, but there are no disappointing songs here. Her voice is so warm, and she really gets involved with the text. If you are a big fan of Kiri, you should get this collection, it is such a nice selection of her greatest hits, and it is a very good introduction for new fans.
Magnificent.......2005-02-20
I admit straightout to know nothing of opera - the cd is my first of its kind. Knowledge, however, is not required to enjoy this cd, only the ability to listen and feel.
Hearing her voice used as an instrument so beautifully I cannot but fall a little in love with her whenever listening to it.
The selection of tracks is varied; I probably prefer the classical tracks, but all are well performed in my opinion.
Kiri Te Kanawa Is Peerless.......2004-07-11
She looks and sounds so beautiful. The first time I ever heard the inimitable voice of Kiri Te Kanawa was on a recording of Salaambo's aria from CITIZEN KANE for the RCA film classics series on vinyl. It was one of the most haunting and beautiful pieces of music ever composed by Bernard Herrmann. It was Kiri Te Kanawa performance of this piece that was so incredible. I had seen the film several times, but to hear a high fidelity recording of Kiri Te Kanawa on this particular piece really demonstrated not only the raw talent but also a depth of intuitive emotion that she brought to Herrmann's composition. Anyone that could interpret the inner struggle behind Herrmann's music so precisely demonstrated an uncommon ability to become one with the music. Her performance of "Ave Maria" on this CD is referent and exquisite. I love Leonard Bernstein's piece from WEST SIDE STORY that Kiri performs so vibrantly with Jose Carreras. I still can't pronounce her entire name correctly but Kiri Te Kanawa is the epitome of a well-honed talent. The selections on this CD are appreciably diverse demonstrating her phenomenal range and abilities. Kiri Te Kanawa has been and still is a gift to us all. This CD is wonderful.
I stood up also!!.......2003-07-31
Yes, Kiri at 59 is something special indeed. The great moment for me in Edinburgh was Reynaldo Hahn's à Chloris - I always thought Susan Graham owned this song, but Kiri's version from that moment on was the one I will always remember.
Do catch her & the wonderful Julian Reynolds with a similar program at the Royal Festival Hall on november 24th. If you have any money left buy this album from amazon.com. Great cover!

Much better record with the shorter format.......2007-03-07
Only true classics deserve 5 stars, whereas only corporate drivel deserves 1 star, like a Britney Spears album. Re-Union earns a solid 3 stars.
I first owned the original release back in '91 and sold it a few years later -- far too many filler tracks. Don't get me wrong; it had good songs on it also, but they got overshadowed by all the down time. This release lops off some of the weaker tracks and it makes for a much tighter (and rewarding) record.
I actually like this record now and proud to have it in my collection. [Previously, I had been pretty indifferent about it]. The shorter format does two things: not only do you not get bored listening to the record anymore, but you learn to better appreciate the songs that are on there.
The highlights are definitely 'Lift Me Up' and 'Miracle of Life' (Trevor Rabin contributions), although the AWBH efforts weren't too bad either. Of those, I like 'Silent Talking', 'Holding On', and 'Without Hope' the most. Generally the AWBH are more mainstream-sounding compared with their debut effort. Sure, nothing here is groundbreaking but it's a good rock record with that distinctive Yes flair.
If you have most of the other Yes records, then I'd pick this one up -- it is certainly not their worst effort. Otherwise, I'd sample first their classics (Fragile, Close to the Edge, 90125) before buying Re-Union.
worth a relisten.......2006-12-21
The infamous YES Union CD was almost universally panned when it was released in the early 90's. It basically stuck together 2 different line-ups (ABWH + 90125 band) and tried to sell itself as a "union" of the YES camps. A long list of session musicians appeared in the liner notes for the "AWBH" lineup's tracks. Most of the band seemed unhappy with the disc. No fans rated it as one of their favorite YES releases. Then it came out much later that Steve Howe and Rick Wakeman are hardly even on the CD! I sold my copy a while back.
I was in a music store browsing through the YES section when I noticed this new repackage of 10 of the 14 original tracks and was retitled "(Re)Union". It had a nice computer generated cover. And it was only $6.99.
So I decided to buy it on a whim.
I actually really enjoy this CD now. It's more cohesive with some of the fat trimmed off, although I do miss "Take the Water to the Mountain". It's fun to hear Jimmy Hahn doing his Steve Howe type playing. Originally I thought it was Steve Howe. The sound also seems clearer and fuller.
Although not of course in the same league as their classic work, there's some good music on here and the session people did a great job. Jon's voice is in top form, and Trevor's "Miracle of Life" is a real standout. "Shock to the System", "Silent Talking", "I would Have Waited Forever" and "Holding On" all really rock. Probably the weakest in the bunch is "Saving My Heart".

Recently, Krokus celebrated a phenomenal comeback with their new studio-produced album, Rock The Block. In no time at all, their album brought the Swiss based hard rock legends a number one as well as a platinum disc in their home country of Switzerland. The live, double album Fire And Gasoline, recorded in Sweden as well as in Switzerland is proof that the power group's true calling is based around Fernando von Arb and Marc Storace's performances which is evident in every powerful new song on "Rock the Block".
