Best Masterpieces. T. Milashkina. V. Atlantov. Box set: 7 CD+ booklet

Collection of opera arias, ballads and songs by the legendary Tamara Milashkina and Vladimir Atlantov introduces you masterpieces of musical art of the twentieth century.

“Life is short, but art is eternal”. Days of celebrated glory slip into the past, taking with them those who gave us the chance to discover beauty and wonder. We are left with indelible impressions, memories of exhilarating forces, seeking to gain even more inspiration from their chosen paths. 

Some time in the past, namely in the second half of the 20th century, two bright stars blazed on the world opera scene — Tamara Milashkina and Vladimir Atlantov.

This brilliant and successful collaboration between two great singers has provided the music world with an enormous number of authentic and masterly-performed chefs-d’oeuvres, model references of impeccable taste and skill, enhanced by their “education”, talent and hard work.

Fortunately, during the half century when these great artists appeared at different musical venues, their performances and concerts were recorded, and many films, in which they took part, were also preserved. 

Our objective was to select the best performances so as to allow mu-sic lovers of the 21st century to possess and listen to these masterpieces. So, you are holding a CD called “The Selected Works of Tamara Milashkina and Vladimir Atlantov”. You are very lucky: legends from the national and world opera scene will sing for you from that wonderful distant past so that your present may become just as wonderful.
