I really like Boris Christoff. He was an amazing singer. I also wanted to share the link on Georgiy Petrov. This is an unprofessional recording, but you can still hear his amazing technique.

He is Mephisto; he don't need pretend!

@Spiritakis Bogus? Who? Ruggero Raimondi with that ugly, dead tone? Sam Ramey, the luckiest comprimario in history? Morris and Burchuladze mooing like a herd of cattle? Ghiaurov was a drammatico. Forget it, for cantante Siepi rules from 1950 till today.



Boris Christoff is undoubtedly the Chuck Norris of operatic basses.

Immortal! He isn't just singing Mephistofeles, he turns into him! Had the luck to hear him on stage when just a little kid - you never forget than titanic voice. The records cannot show it to you, but his power was immense.
