What a voice!
There is a quality in his voice I try to get in my sound.

Ahhhhh, great taste Wilmer. Jussi is one of the all time best. What power and beauty wrapped into one. I have several recordings of his, mostly on vinyl, and always liked his voice and musicianship.

Tebaldi was no schlep either. I love her! Thank you for posting this jewel. Ahhhhhh..........I have replayed it three times already.

Bud's favorite singer or at least way back when he was younger. Who knows, he may have heard/worked with someone else afterwards that moved him as wlell or more.

Just gorgeous nonetheless. And he took the high C option along with Renata; always an exciting moment for opera lovers while they anxious wonder whether the tenor du jour will "go for it".

Thanks, Wilmer,

I have just recently started listening to Opera, even though I have played the first trumpet part in Il Banda in the opera Aida.

This was a wonderful clip. I will have to look for more from these singers.

That's fantastic Wilmer, thanks for sharing. I'm a huge fan of Bjorling. Being a bit of a tenor myself I often use recordings of him and Placido Domingo to inspire my sound concept.

Such musicality! Some day............

Bud's teacher, Georges Mager, was a tenor, a very fine singer I am told.
Jussi Bjorling is mentioned in "Trumpet Profiles" by several players as being an admired musician.

If any of us could play that lyrically....

The La Boheme recording with Beecham conducting. His Calaf in Turandot.

They don't come better than that.

Yes, the Bjorling Turandot with Leinsdorf conducting on RCA is definitely a "desert island" CD, perhaps the only CD set needed on that desert island!! Pure heaven.
