Eileen Farrell - An American Prima Donna

This is a rare find for lovers of Eileen Farrell's singing. She demonstrates her amazing capacity to sing French Lieder as well as opera. Her acting ability in the Italian arias and her perceptive understanding of the French songs are outstanding . And to be sure we don't forget her abilities in getting the pop song across, she ends this Firestone DVD with a very convincing, uniquely sung torch song! Brava sempre, Eileen Farrell. I wish there were full opera performances of her days at the Met!!Dina Soresi Winter

Eileen Farrell is one of the worlds great singers! This DVD with the Orchestra of the Radio-Canada Opera is first rate. Over alla wonderful item for young singers to hear, view and study. All together brilliant!!!

If you are a fan of Eilleen Farrell and wonderful singing, try to get a copy of this marvelous DVD. I am certain it will bring back memories to those who remember her and perhaps heard her live or saw her performing on TV. It is a fitting tribute and archive of a great singer.

It’s hard to understand why this great dramatic soprano is not mentioned often. I rarely hear anyone who can compare with her.
