  • The great Irish tenor in his absolute vocal prime with his virtually unique command of soft singing in the upper register that may have equaled only by Gedda in the years since. The song is exceptionally difficult to sing and very, very few tenors have ventured to record their versions of it.Perhaps an even better example of the soft but focused top is the b-flat climax of Macushla taken pppp(equally as imposing is the stunning ff approach taken by Jan Peerce off the breath).
