Hit: 5 Stars
This is an amazing cd. Sarah Brightman is a great vocalist, who already is a household name in classical music. There are good songs and I finally found the song i was looking for- from the Secret Garden "Anytime, Anywhere." It's an amazing song and also Ava Maria. A good song. Some other opera singers don't really know how to make their voices pure... as they grow up into woman. But, Sarah has accomplished this role in making her voice still pure, but amazing. Free Music Review: Fails to impress...

Now I'm as much a Sarah Brightman fan as the next guy; thought she was terrific vocally as "Phantom"'s Christine. Listening to this CD helps me to remember that was *20* years ago. What Sarah lacks in vocal control and tonality she makes up for in breathiness and her infamous "swooping" up into high notes.
This CD features a number of "new" recordings, although I don't understand why. Sarah takes on Lloyd Webber's "Pie Jesu" as well as "Time to Say Goodbye" alone. These two duets propelled her to stardom in their time which makes me wonder why she gives such a half-hearted effort at re-recording them alone with such shoddy results.
Sarah also has re-recorded Puccini's "O Mio Babbino Caro" which allows one to hear firsthand the decline of her voice in just a few years.
The only redeeming tracks on this CD are those that were taken from previous albums--"La Luna", "Eden", and "Time to Say Goodbye". My recommendation would be to buy those CDs instead to hear Sarah Brightman at her best and to leave this CD alone.

What a treat to wake up to Sarah Brightman's angelic voice in the morning. I have several cds that I alternate to wake me up in the morning, and Sarah Brightman's is one of my favorites.Free Music Review: YOU BETTER HAVE: VERY GOOD SPEAKERS!!!
Hit: 5 Stars
This is no ordinary voice in "belle canto". You must have
very good speakers, I insist!!!
It starts with a mystic: "AVE MARIA", followed by "La Wally" to "levitate" you into the clouds;
then back to earth to a lovely "Winter Light/Anytime Anywhere" with a vocal arrangement worthy of a great theatre,
(in the middle of a flower field)...it is unbelievable!
Next, experience the Spanish-Moorish, evocative, honey-voice
in: "Alhambra". How will anybody forget that enchanting song?
Then the sharp and me-tri-cal "Lascia Chio Pianga"
with its cry to liberty.....Wow! for the pace and the greatness!!
Followed by the chant of: "Dans la Nuit",
prepare yourself to remember and be mellow with a little nostalgia....
Then back to the skies and clouds (this time higher) to experience deep love and peace with: "Serenade/How Fare is This Place"
You will then experiment love in the air.... with the song :
"O Mio Babbino Caro".
Then visit another field of flowers, this time, in the Moon with: "La Luna". Continue to feel the passion of: "Pie Jesu", sublime and choral...
Feel a mother's cry for her child in: "Figlio Perduto"; the lyrics express her dismay and a tragic tone.
In: "Nessun Dorma" we can say: Brava! for an odd accomplishment: singing a part, traditionally for men. You will like this version.
Now with "Bailero" prepare to ascend to the dimension of your choice (probably the fifth) since you will fly further than the sky!
And voila!... At the end, you will be surprised with the energizing and refreshingly sad: "Time to Say Good bye"! This one... into the Andrea Bocelly's "domain", but now, in Brightman's beautiful voice and version.
Hope this was helpful, this is certainly a: must buy, must have, wonderful CD.
Forgive those who can't undestand the jacket artwork, they know nothing about Modern or Classic Art. This unique, monumental mastership is not for "Opera freak fans". It must be evaluated by its originality.She is a DIVA in her musical momentum. Of course she is not an opera singer, but she is an excellent one.
Thanks Sarah Brightman, for your gifted voice!
