Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

On Reprise, his third album, Russell Watson continues to bring together classical pieces with light songs--have Bizet and "Bohemian Rhapsody" ever shared a disc before? Probably not, and with good reason--it's rather unsettling to hear Leoncavallo's devestating "Vesti la giubba" (from Pagliacci) tagged on after a dreary rendition of the aforementioned Queen hit.

He may have been dubbed "the people's tenor", but Watson is at his best--and most comfortable--at the lighter end of the repertory. He sings the lilting "That's Amore" with charm and humour, a smooth performance which compares to Robbie Williams on Swing When You're Winning.

Nicholas Dodd's swooning orchestrations give Reprise a grandiose feel. Sadly, Watson's voice cannot match their intensity; his version of the famous duet from The Pearl Fishers (yes, he sings both parts) sounds strangled and his performance of "Core 'ngrato" is distinctly unmemorable.

Watson is credited as Reprise's producer. If he maintains that role on album number four, he should concentrate on the light songs and ballads, which he performs so well, in this instance not just "That's Amore" but also "The Living Years", "I don't know how I got by" and "The best that love can be". --Rebecca Agnew

5.0 out of 5 stars A fantastic blend of pop and opera, 24 Nov 2002
This recording must be Russell Watson's best yet. His superb voice is shown here in a variety of differnt songs. He uses 3 voices on this album: his pop voice for Nothing Sacred; his powerful voice for That's Amore; and his trademark opera voice for lots of the tracks including Ave Maria. This album shows his musical talent and is a must have album for Russell Watson fans. Anyone else who doesn't listen to classical or opera music should buy this too, his voice is an instant hit with both young and old he really does live up to his nickname of "The Voice"

5.0 out of 5 stars SPELLBOUND!!!, 18 Nov 2002
REPRISE, the third album from Russell"the voice"Watson is without any doubt in my mind the most incredible album to date
The most beautiuful classical arias ever composed blended with popular love songs and two incredible duets. Torna a Surriento is the first track and one hell of an introduction to this album, you are instantly transported to Italy and swept away in the emotion of Russell's outstanding voice. Granada,Recondita armonia and Questa o quella mix perfectly with Santa Lucia. then Russell changes tactic and the voice changes "Nothing sacred" the Jim Steinman classic and the tears flow, this song is being released as a charity single next month.Core 'ngrato is absolutely stunning, breathtaking, the beauty and power of Russell's voice, richer and deeper than ever, this has to be the highlight of this album. Bohemian Rhapsody is a fantastic cover of the Queen original, even Freddy Mercury would love this. Vesti la guibba is the finale, and you feel the raw emotion, the despair and pain. Russell Watson has produced a truly amazing album. The production, the orchestration and finish is perfection, the sound - very "HOLLYWOOD", stunning
polished, finished to perfection.
I did wonder how Russell would manage to follow ENCORE, well he has outdone himself here, REPRISE
words fail me
ENCORE RUSSELL!!!!!!!!!!MAGNIFICO!

5.0 out of 5 stars COMING OF AGE, 16 Nov 2002
Being familiar with both of Russell Watson's CDs I was eager to hear the third. And it does not disappoint in the slightest, this is, indeed, the coming of age of the artist. It is a beautifully produced CD, with well selected tracks and exquisite balance between vocal and instrumental lines.
Of the arias "Pourquoi me reveiller?" and "Vesti la giubba" are the standouts, they will tear at your heart. "Questa o quella" demonstrates the vocal strides he has made since the Leeds concert and "Recondita armonia" is a lovely version of a beautiful aria. The "Pearl Fishers" duet is an amazing achievement. "That's Amore", "Core 'ngrato" and "Ave Maria" are destined to be favourites, all for different reasons and "The Best that Love Can be", a duet with Cleopatra Higgens, is gorgeous, the two voices harmonize so well. "La Danza" and "Bohemian Rhapsody" are, perhaps, the bravest tracks on the CD and he is up to the challenge on both occasions. The backing vocals on "Nothing Sacred" and "Boh Rap" will thrill.
If I have a reservation, I would have liked a little more variation in the volume in "Santa Lucia", but that is a very small reservation amongst a whole room full of bouquets. There is something for every mood and the incredible versatility of this astonishing artist is well displayed. Not the least because he produced it himself, perhaps the most laudable achievement of all. If you approach music with an open mind and heart, you will find everything you require in this CD.
