Summary: Good singer
Comment: Good soprana, but is other kind of what I was expected to be. The CD is cool and was a good investment.

Summary: Ehhhhhh
Comment: As a huge fan of Sarah Brightman and Hayley Westenra, I thought I would be equally impressed with Izzy. Instead I found her lacking. Her voice isn't bad, merely mediocre. I lump her with the Charlotte Church variety - pretty, but nothing special. I'll stick with Sarah.

Summary: Best female vocalist?
Comment: I must admit, when it comes to Izzy, I am extremely biased, she is my favourite female singer, and as far as I am concerned, the greatest female vocalist, I already had most of these tracks on a British release, but I wanted the duet with Daniel Rodriguez, also the video of My Love is Like a Red Red Rose, in my estimation, this is the ultimate version of this beautiful song, if you've heard any of these tracks, but not by Izzy, you really should try to get to hear Izzy's versions. There's just a special magic, that she brings, you recognise the song immediately, yet at once it also seems fresh and new with Izzy's version.
Even the greatest opera duet ever, Au Fond Du Temple Saint, written to be performed by male voices, takes on a whole new life performed by Izzy.

Summary: I Blaspheme As I Say: " Move over Sarah Brightman"
Comment: This album is absolutely amazing: of that, Sarah Brighhtman should be afraid. I absolutely love La Brightman, but Izzy is sure to cause dissent among loyal Brightman fans with regard to who has the prettier voice, especially since Sarah left her operatic voice behind, for the most part, on her latest "Harem". "Les Temps Des Cerises, "Greensleeves" and "Steal Away" are enough alone to lobby for Izzy as our new "Angel of Music;" Or maybe I'm going a bit overboard here. Surely there is plenty of room in ear space for two angelically-dipped voices.
Sarah Brightman, return, full-voiced, or else...
Customer Rating:
Summary: Excellent
Comment: I'm usually not a fan of Italian and French arias and operatic pieces, but Izzy does such a great job here that she has converted me...I especially like her take on "Sull'Aria," "Temps Cherises," and "Steal Away."
To answer another reviewer's question ("Where is she now?"), this album was released in September 2003, a year after "A New Dawn"--this IS where she is now.
