Seeing Tebaldi, presumably in her heyday - how
marvellous! The only other famous persons I have come across
were Mario del Monaco, in 1961 in San Francisco (I was
a super, which was lots of fun); and seeing the
YOUNG Pavarotti (who sounded to me "Almost like Jussi
Bjoerling" - in 1972 at Wolf Trap in D.C. But to me, there
is NO TENOR like Bjoerlin!
Yes, that was quite an introduction! I love Leontyne Price in recordings of Aida, and in her farewell telecast of that role. I've never seen her in that role...

An article in today's Sunday New York Times likens Gregory Turay to Jussi Bjoerling. I've heard Gregory Turay in a few live performances, and I thought that he...
I have never heard Mr. Turay but doubt that anyone could possibly have the same timbre to his voice as Jussi Bjoerling! And it makes one wonder about the...
Yes, I love that recording with Merrill and Bjoerling of the duet from the Pearl Fishers. I have it on a cassette. It is one of the cassettes that I usually...
Victoria de los Angeles is also my favorite of the sopranos with whom Bjoerling made complete opera recordings.<br><br>The museum site is very interesting....
Last Saturday I listened again to the Naxos compact disc that I bought a few weeks ago, of arias that Jussi recorded in the thirties and forties. It is very ...

I don't have that particular recording, but I agree: I love to hear him sing in Swedish. Do you have the CD (I think it was released by Nimbus) of his early...
I agree totally. His recordings on the Arias Naxos CD are great. I would also very much recommend his performance as the Duke in the Rigoletto recording, also...
I have a recording of Jussi singing some songs in Swedish, and back when I was buying LP's I got a recording of him in La Traviata in Swedish, but I don't have...

Hello, Zach. Welcome to the club! You made a very good choice for your first opera. I like other tenors, but Jussi is definitely in a category by himself....
I personally dont' mind Milanov's voice. it is beautiful, but she isn't exactly very good. it sounds like she needs to clear her throat. and she isn't as ...
Did Jussi ever stay around a few other singers-what i mean is, did he like to perform with specific people around him, and try to stay with them on stage and...
