Renée Fleming, the renowned American soprano, invites you into the heart of Italian opera with her stunning 2010 album, "Renée Fleming singt italienische Arien." This exquisite collection, released on Decca, features Fleming's powerful and nuanced performances of some of the most beloved arias from the Italian operatic canon.

The album also includes lesser-known gems such as "Ebben? Ne andrò lontana" from Catalani's "La Wally" and "Ah non sai qual prestigio si cela" from Mascagni's "Maria Padilla," showcasing Fleming's versatility and depth as an artist.
Accompanied by the London Philharmonic Orchestra, Fleming's performances are brought to life with orchestral brilliance, making this album a true celebration of Italian opera. Whether you're a seasoned opera enthusiast or a newcomer to the genre, this album is a captivating journey through the rich and dramatic world of Italian opera, as interpreted by one of the most celebrated sopranos of our time.
