If you do not have the Riedel recording entitled The Power of Love — British opera arias with the Australian Opera Ballet Orchestra conducted by Richard Bonynge — I strongly recommend it. It remains one of the most delightful and memorable vocal recordings I’ve heard in many years.

Fact is, Riedel’s voice is reminiscent of Dame Joan Sutherland’s voice at its best.
