Some have compared Lissovsky to Domingo. Atlantov, Pyavko and Lissovsky were roughly contemporaneous. Russia during the 1960's and 1970's was a treasure trove of dramtic tenors.
Ever since I first heard Lissovsky on the "May Night" recording I have been amazed that he was so seldomly recorded. The voice is beautiful and, as hard as it is to tell from the recording, seems heroic and quite large. Was he well-known in the Soviet Union?
That is a wonderful and touching story from his pupil... thank you for sharing
