On "Sulla tua bocca lo diro" Mina sings compositions by Giacomo Puccini, Leonard Bernstein, George Gershwin and other composers. The selections by Bernstein are from "West Side Story" with lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. Those by Gershwin are from "Porgy and Bess with lyrics by Ira Gershwin. There are selections from several of Puccini's operas. On this disc Mina sang in Italian, English and Spanish. The CD was released in 2009. Her voice is not the type of voice that one usually associates with the songs that she recorded on this CD, but it is an interesting combination. I am glad that she is continuing to record music. Some day I will buy her latest Cd, but that can wait. I definitely will not get all of her music. She has released 79 albums.
