[99Gambo]

So much of Jussi B's work is quite simply staggering. Here we go again!

[buttsyrc8]

Wonderful singer.

God Bless him!

[neronnenn]

Che classe! Il più grande tenore di sempre:

[kittycrunch456]

Such pure voice, makes me choke.

[reeferisme]

Merrihew,,,,,so it is with all of us sadly

[nonicare]

Bjoerling is the Tenor by which any serious student of Opera should aspire and learn from!

[cicadada]

At 21 he's already a great master!

[paulostroff99]

Another gem for the crown!

[brychar66]

Wonderful! I love Jussi. I love tango - especially Francisco Canaro.

[kspm01]

This is just gorgeous!!!

[balletamie]

I forgot to say How popular Tango was in the '30, in Europe! (and US, like early X. Cugat Orch. recordings)

[jurek46pink]

I invite you to my Cugat's in the post 'Rain in Spain'.

[balletamie]

Ok I am going to look ...

[balletamie]

Wow! J, excellent sound and artist.

[merrihew]

Unbelievable that he was so young when this was recorded. There's a freshness that faded over the subsequent years.

[ellandelachapelle]

Yes when he came to the Opera School in Stockholm at 17 they were all amazed. He already sounded like a real tenor! And why? Because their father (who was a tenor) trained him and his brothers every day throughout all of their child-hood! (even massaging their throats so that they were able to sing all through their teens.)They all sounded like tenors from the start! (in a recording done when he was 9 you can recognize his voice.)

The gorgeous voice of young Bjorling. Delightful.
