MusicWeb International sees superstar qualities in Lawrence Brownlee’s new Virtuoso Rossini Arias recording:
“This is Lawrence Brownlee’s first recital with orchestra, and this new kid on the bel canto block uses it to show us just how good he is when he is on his home turf. The results are thrilling. While we might lament the current lack of decent Verdi singers, we should count ourselves lucky to live in an era which has probably seen more first rate bel canto singers than at any time since Rossini’s own death, and Brownlee is one of the current superstars. … Recorded sound is first rate, and the booklet contains contextual notes about each opera, together with texts and translations… Sit back and enjoy.” —Simon Thompson, MusicWeb International
