This superbly engineered survey of his early career takes us from 1936 through to 1948, and covers, for the most part, his standard repertoire of French and Italian music--extracts from Aida and from Faust, and from both Massenet's Manon and Puccini's Manon Lescaut. He was a singer equally at home with the elegance of bel canto and with the passionate sorrows of verismo--he is particularly fine in \"Vesti la guibba\" from Leoncavallo's \"Pagliacci\". Björling was always going to have to struggle to make this repertoire his own--much of his early audience had heard Caruso. What Björling brought to his roles was a superb theatricality and a capacity for thoughtful passion; amid the lyricism, you also always remembered that his heroes were for the most part tough guys.--Roz Kaveney\n\nProduct Description\n\nVarious\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 636943170120\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0636943170120\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eModel:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.110701\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e audioCD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"IDshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48666600243459,"sku":"FC-7JRU-ESN3","price":3.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0030\/9765\/7390\/files\/81ZfqSPCKFL.jpg?v=1782568634","url":"https:\/\/idshop.ca\/en\/products\/opera-arias-3","provider":"ID Shop.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
