Ideal as a gift: packaged in an elegant box, these 5 CDs feature six opera stars with nearly thirty famous arias:
- Baritone Jorma Hynninen with recordings from the late 1980s, after he conquered the world's foremost opera houses and concert stages (ODE 731-2);
- Lyric soprano Soile Isokoski with her famous 2004 recording of Mozart arias, which led The Daily Telegraph to wonder, "Is there a finer Mozart singer today than Soile Isokoski?" (ODE 1043-2);
- Acclaimed young baritone Tommi Hakala with his 2003 début recording, which he recorded shortly after winning the BBC 'Singer of the World' contest (ODE 1048-2);
- Mezzo-soprano Elina Garanca with her 2001 début recording, which Ondine released in order to launch the career of this international superstar of today (ODE 969-2);
- Bass-baritone newcomer Juha Uusitalo, who joined Ondine's roster in 2008, with three extracts from his acclaimed Wagner album (ODE 1121-2);
- Soprano Karita Mattila with a live captured recording from 2000, performing among other arias, 'Vissi d'arte' from Tosca in front of an excited audience of 11,000 people in Helsinki (complete album ODE 968-2).
