Description
Many people are born to sing, but few are born to sing like the angels. Beniamino Gigli is truly the most remarkable tenor of this century. While he peformed on both sides of the Atlantic, in New York, London, Italy, and Germany for nearly his entire career, he remained loyal to his family, friends, colleagues, and record company with little ego and great warmth. Above all else, his voice had a lyrical quality that remains unique, even in the age of the three tenors. Pagliacci was his signature role, and performed it with such abandon, that it took a toll on his voice over the years, but the 1922 recording on this CD is him doing what he does best. The 1923 'M'appari tutto amor' is also very nice.
