Customer Reviews of This Album/CD |

OK, just not what I thought Submitted on: 2007-04-26 |
|
| I was hooked on the genre by "East Village Opera Company", and this group has some similarities, but they're closer to traditional opera by vocal production style, so I didn't appreciate them quite as much. As with most opera singers, their technique is admirable, and it's the sort of thing you'd like, if you liked that sort of thing. |

The first time ever I saw this group "Amici forever" as they were singing "Unchained melody", I have confused that song like classical music. Because, it was very familiar. Actually, I didn't know exactly what's that song that moment. Finally, I knew that song is popular music I used to sing. So, laughed myself.
It was brilliant and great performance I ever heared before.
I bought DVD, too. And I recommended my friend and he also felt their singing like me. He said great and thanks to me. |

Amici going from strength to strength Submitted on: 2006-03-22 |

AMICI FOREVER ARE THE ORIGINAL OPERA BAND - all others are just 'pretenders to the title'.
I have just read the review by Bob - to clarify this Special Edition is the same as the original version with a couple of added extra tracks - hence Special Edition so there obviously is not much of a difference!!
Having said that, the extra tracks are beautiful, but Amici are best appreciated live on stage where you can really appreciate their individual styles, which then blend together.
If you want to hear different tracks then buy Defined there second Original Album and not a re-issue as is this Special Edition Opera Band.
There is now talk of a 3rd Album which I await in anticipation. |

A Real Disappointment Submitted on: 2006-03-19 |
|
| After really enjoying the Amici Forever album, I went shopping for another Amici album and found this one. There really is no comparison between the two. I've tried listening to it several times to see if I'm missing something, but somehow the selections and arrangements seem more appropriate for the Lawrence Welk generation than anyone interested in a spicy little opera troupe. I was very disappointed. |

| This CD is outstanding and I enjoy listening to it over and over. I even have one in the car and one in the house so I can have easy access to listening to this CD anytime. |
