  • Description

    The word soprano comes from the Italian sopra meaning above. We sopranos sing higher than everyone else, because we normally carry the melody. And oh! what beautiful melodies they are! This is a collection of some of the best in the classical world, across the ages and from many countries. (Elin Manahan Thomas)

    Elin Manahan Thomas is one of Britain's most gifted young sopranos and the Swansea born singer had a magical journey in the Sopranos series for S4C Television, travelling throughout Europe, learning the stories behind the greatest songs, and getting to know some of the colourful characters in the world of opera, oratorio and song.

    As well as items sung by Elin, she is joined on two tracks by Charlotte Mobbs and baritone Robert Davies.

    As well as being a busy singer Elin is also in great demand as a presenter and broadcaster, having presented for BBC One and BBC Four and regulary presents live concerts for Radio Three.
