The New Yorker hailed her as "the best dramatic soprano before the public", while the San Francisco Chronicle enthused, "She is to singers what Niagara is to waterfalls." To mark the 100th anniversary of Eileen Farrell (1920-2002), Sony Classical presents this new 16-album collection of this beloved artist's entire American Columbia recordings from 1946 to 1963, displaying her uniquely wide repertoire, ranging from Brunnhilde to Broadway, from Cherubini's Medea to Berg's Marie, from Debussy songs to Danny Boy, from Gluck to Gershwin, with 6 LPs appearing for the first time on modern recording on Sony Classical.
