VA - Five Songbirds: A Reference Collection of Female Voices (2004)

This album is a celebration of the signature songs of 5 great divas. For this reference sampler album, FIM has carefully selected the best tracks from their archives, particularly looking for tracks that stood out in terms of excellence in performance, vocal articulation, and superior musicality. Includes songs by these world-class singers: Jacintha, Patricia Barber, Esther Ofarim, Ayako Hosokawa and Marie Nakamoto. This is an existing title of the FIM catalog, re-mastered into the new Black Vinyl CD format as a special attraction to customers at half of the price of the (now out-of-print) SACD version. FIM Black Vinyl CD is a new audiophile CD that looks like the old vinyl 45 rpm record, which has a retro appeal.
