The Met should sign up Alieva, a powerful soprano with dramatic flair. In the meantime, you can catch Antonenko's "Otello." This CD will please opera lovers." --Barry Bassis, Epoch Times, July 27, 2015"One would welcome hearing these artists paired in this opera...The Tchaikovsky excerpts unsurprisingly bring forth more detailed verbal commitment from both artists: this is another joint casting one would welcome." --David Shengold, Opera News, September 2014 ## Images ![Alieva & Antonenko - Image 1](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/81Cq3HW1c4L.jpg) ![Alieva & Antonenko - Image 2](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/81z0tQXA3QL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Glorious!!! *by H***L on Reviewed in the United States on August 22, 2015* I quite agree with the other review of June 9. This album is pure pleasure. Big, healthy, gorgeous voices singing glorious music. No messing around with clever vocal colors or contrived phrasing, or deep intellectual/psychological observations or other pretensions, these singers have the goods to go for the MUSIC and sing it gloriously. Wonderful conducting from the always estimable Orbelian. Highly recommended. Did I mention how BEAUTIFUL these voices are?! 6 stars! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Four Stars *by D***R on Reviewed in the United States on November 15, 2016* fairly good ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Alieva shines and is more than competently partnered *by R***E on Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2015* Handsomely produced, providing extended excerpts from four great operas, featuring two of the most sought-after young singers on the circuit today and in excellent sound, this is a typically high quality Delos production which will attract opera buffs and novices alike.Dinara Alieva is the best new Verdi singer since Sondra Radvanovsky and here confirms what we have already heard in her solo album of Russian songs and arias for Naxos and her previous recital of operatic plums Delos. She has a big, pure, vibrant sound with a touch of the smokiness which often enhances great voices. If her trill in the “Il trovatore” aria is sometimes a touch sketchy and occasionally one could wish for a more distinct variation in the characterisation of her chosen heroines, these are minor cavils in comparison with the gleam and thrill of her lustrous soprano. To compensate, has any recent soprano sung “gli areca I miei sospiri “ with its concluding B flat with such gorgeous, floating intensity and security?About Latvian tenor Aleksandrs Antonenko I am marginally less enthusiastic, if only because I detect an element of forcing in his tonal production which I very much hope will not constitute the onset of consistent the over-singing which can so easily curtail a tenor’s career. Loud top notes tend to spread a little and there is nothing especially distinctive about his sound, which is apparently sizeable – I have not heard him live. However, to some degree his timbre reminds me of some excellent British tenors of yesteryear who were best suited to Mozart, Handel and Elgar rather than the Otello he has been singing and his voice is devoid of that Italianate quality that one might characterise as “full of the warm south”. “Celeste Aida” is very competently sung; he does not attempt the diminuendo on the concluding B flat that Verdi writes but few tenors do. He is unfortunately recorded far too close for the proper dramatic effect in the “Miserere” duet but the concluding duet from “Aida” is impressive. It is odd, however, that mezzo-soprano who sings Amneris – presumably drawn from the Kaunas Choir – goes uncredited when the documentation here is otherwise so thorough.Both artists are unsurprisingly at their best in terms of both vocalisation and drama in Tchaikovsky’s opera, where they sound most at ease with both the language and the musical line.This a generous and gripping recital, most valuable for Alieva’s contribution and certainly of interest to anyone who wants to hear two rising operatic stars.[This review also posted on the MusicWeb International website] --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/22222369-alieva-and-antonenko](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/22222369-alieva-and-antonenko) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-04-26*
