Jussi Bjorling sings Io l'ho perduta! Dio che nell...

For you fans of Bjorling's and Merrill's rendition of the Pearl Fishers duet, by request I have uploaded "Io l'ho perduta!; Dio che nell' alma infondere" from Verdi's Don Carlo. Recorded January 3, 1951, with Jussi Bjorling, Robert Merrill, Emil Markow. The RCA Victor Symphony Orchestra led by Renato Cellini. Enjoy.

This is great! I only wish they had re-recorded it after the invention of stereo. Think how good it would have sounded in stereo!

What I've always loved about Bjorling's recordings is the quality. Despite the old recording techniques many of his recordings are top notch for their time.

min absolut favorit duet sunget af 2 mænd. specielt 6.43 min inde i duetten er den mest fantastiske passage.

Bjorling stuns me again! Not only does he shine here, I'm amazed by how in synch the vibratos are in the duets.

@lrhjussifan It also sounds better off the CD as opposed to youtube quality.

beautiful voices, great artistry etc....all very true but what matters most here, where there is no video/film, is that none none needed....the aural presentation tells all.....simply marvellous!!!

Such stories are very interesting to here. Wish more people could tell about howe it was when he performed. Where you there your self? i was lucky to be at his last concert in Gothenburg august 1960. An historic event ! I was just a boy but the experince was so strong that i remeber it very clear. According to many, his most emotional concert. The car cue from south into Gothenburg was 30 km long! Everything stod still. You`l find Donna non vidi from this concert under Onegin 65.
