The number of opera singers who, at any one moment in time, can be described as "household" names are few and far between but there is no question that one name that does spring to mind is that of Kiri Te Kanawa. This 'Portrait' album features highlights of her career, from Mozart to Broadway. The 2CD set encompasses a staggering range of recordings, including favourites with which she made her name. Not to be missed!
