Jussi Björling - The Swedish Caruso (5CD)(EMI)[OGG][twistle]



Jussi Bjorling (1911-1960) : Arguably the finest tenor of the twentieth century. More info here - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jussi_Björling

This five CD boxset contains a large selection of good recordings. There is almost no overlap with either the other two CDs that I have uploaded or "Jussis Bästa" uploaded by someone else (the same work may be being performed, but the recordings are different - sometimes greatly so).

You will find a lot of good music on these CDs, if the tenor voice is your sort of thing :)
