The Best And The Greatest Voices Of The Century
Description
Thanks to Messrs Pavarotti, Domingo, and Carreras, the phrase "Three Tenors" has become part of the everyday language. What a bright idea, then, to bring together "The Best & The Greatest Voices Of The Century". Hear the legendary sound of the greatest male singers of the first half of the twentieth century - tenors, baritones and basses, who set the style through their gramophone recordings - indeed they were the first to do so. Although many of the names featured here have been dead for many years, their music and wonderful voices continue to enthral new generations of fans. Thanks to the rich legacy of recordings that they left behind, and the modern recording techniques have ensured that their truly great voices are heard to the best possible advantage many decades later. Selecting the best & The Greatest Voices of any particular era is a rather daunting task, but this collection has achieved that task.
