Title: misguiding
Product review: Fans of Mr Vargas' singing will probably be satisfied.His voice is beautiful, well educated and this repertoire is most apt to show it to advantage. His technique is good (some problems with pianos), his agility commendable.People looking for an adequate rendering of old arias will find this compilation lacking instead: he chooses (as declared in the booklet) to ignore philological and stylistical issues, singing them beautifully but also romantically, as late Donizetti or early Verdi. Problem is that this, to educated ears, sounds incredibly wrong, nearly inaudible.A pity: with more attention (much more attention) to style this could have been a useful compilation for singing students too. Such as it is, it is only good for Mr Vargas' fans if at all.
