 Very good February 10, 2008
LizN (California)
Well, I agree with the previous reviewer that her voice is certainly not at its peak in this DVD. However considering her age she sounds fabulous!

This is probably Dame Kiri's last major release CD, and if it isn't it should be. As demonstrated on this CD her voice is now tired and unemotive. Her radiant tone is now wobbily and unsteady, and she sounds over-miked and uninvolved. It was wise that she had the back-up of several other singers, younger and in more vocal prime, on her programme.
Dame Kiri has announced her retirement from staged opera (www.kiritekanawa.org). Like all great singers before her, there does come a time when ones powers are waning and you must stop. I think this CD is sad, a reminder of what things once were but are no longer.
