Ah George London! What an actor and singer! Not repected enough for his art...

[mxl2003]

I couldn't agree more...just amazing. No one like him today, unfortunately.

Beautiful singing.

imagine what a world we live in in which hampson, d'arcangelo are actually considered good giovanni's.

Loose is wonderful -- how I long to hear such bright, unmannered singing from the soubrettes of today! London does a nice job but I far prefer a lyric baritone as the Don.

@mxl2003 he is one of the my best don with Siepi and ramey. and singer in mozart.

i'm totally one of those ppl whom would never listen to opera, but this song was so catchy that it totally turned me on to classical music.

If this is from his Voice of Firestone video- the soprano is the recently passed American soprano Dorothy Warenskjold (1921-2010) (she was my college voice teacher at UCLA)

Not sure, but I think the soprano is Emmy Loose, a Czech-Austrian

soubrette who sang a lot of Mozart.

Tns 4 the charming post.

London, uno de los grandes artista del siglo XX, en una de sus interpretaciones muy

celebrada. Realmente, el fue, uno de los Grandes interpretes de Don Giovanni. Docu-

mento, este video, muy valioso.

I've noticed that on the whole in comparing different performers singing the same works that over the course of time the performers get look better and sing worse. I think it's a shame that it appears the desire for "beautiful" performers has led to a compromise in vocal standards.
