[ DG Portrait of the Artist / 2 CD ]

"This is an excellent collection of works that show off the talents of this amazing young singer. Ignore the glossy photos and listen to the music...the music is every bit as beautiful as the singer."
(MusicWeb July 2006)
"This is an excellent collection of works that show off the talents of this amazing young singer. Ignore the glossy photos and listen to the music; poor Magdalena would be better off in the long run if she sold her voice and not her pretty eyes and blond hair. After all, people really don't buy such albums for their cover pictures; well, I hope not. But in this case, the music is every bit as beautiful as the singer."
(MusicWeb July 2006)
Magdalena Kozená presents a special 2-CD collection featuring her finest recordings from Bach to Britten.
A richly-coloured voice, a perfect technique and a vivid musical imagination: the recipe for a portrait of an exceptional artist. Enchantment is a personal selection of Magdalena Kozená's greatest recordings, a testimony to the power, drama and tenderness of her voice, and the wide range of her repertoire.
"Kozená has one of those voices that seem to go straight to the heart" (Gramophone)
