Bravura Basses [Import]

Low notes, low life: it must be something in the way basses can sneak their sound down so deep - underground, undercover, underworld - that makes composers allocate all the villain roles to the bass voice! Devils, giants, sorcerers, and cruel, greedy, jealous, vicious, sleazy, sneaky men with too much power and not enough decency: basses, it seems, have all the fun! Paradoxically, though, basses get to be paragons of virtue, too. That deep, rich sound that can make the earth shake can also speak of vast wisdom and experience, of noble birth and noble purpose. But then again, it can be a slippery slope from high minded, through high-and-mighty, to high comedy, and a suitably pompous bass voice has a unique ability to make US laugh. Join some of the world's most internationally renowned artists including Teddy Tahu Rhodes, Ren Pape, Sigmund Nimsgern, Bruce Martin, John Wegner, Nicolai Ghiaurov, Owen Brannigan, Donald Shanks, Paul Robeson and more, on this magnificent Bass Aria album.
