Ferruccio Tagliavini in Opera and Song vol. 2


Ferruccio Tagliavini in Opera and Song vol. 2
Ferrucio Tagliavini is remembered as one of Italy's greatest lyric tenors, following in the tradition of Gigli and Schipa. His operatic career began in Florence, in 1938, when he debuted as Rudolfo in "La Boheme.", the role of his La Scala and Metropolitan Opera debuts (in 1942 and 1946, respectively). Tagliavini made a number of appearances on the "Voice of Firestone" programs. These rare television performances capture the tenor in his glorious prime, bringing his magical vocal charm to many of the world's most beloved songs and arias, in Italian, French, and English.
