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

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

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

[kittycrunch456]

Such pure voice, makes me choke.

[Fallon144]

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

Che classe! Il più grande tenore di sempre:

[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.)

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

[cicadada]

At 21 he's already a great master!
