Title: Not for everyone
Review: Be careful before buying this recording and listen to it somewhere before you buy it. I did not do it and trusted the reviews above and now I have recording I will hardly listen to it again. Everything is nice and cast is well chosen with one exception. Delilah`s role is essentuial for the opera and Miss Meier is among the weakest mezzo I have ever heard. I can not understand the others reviewer`s delight, but I could not find anything interesting in her voice. It is dull, weak voice with no lower register /in mezzosoprano!/ and in emotive scenes she has no power. Well, the most famous aria "Mon coeur s'ouvre a ta voix" is sung O.K. /but not among the best versions/, but the opera has much more to offer in Delilah`h secenes a there I was really dissatisfied with the weakness and not a mezzo voice colour of her voice.
Is the review positive or negative?
