Dear Greg,
I heard Jussi in his last four concerts in New York. I saw him twice at
Carnegie and twice at Hunter College. I never saw him in an opera performance,
although, I have some friends who had. His voice was so beautiful and carried
wonderfully. It was not a huge voice but it filled the hall and could be heard
from every seat. I recall many people being moved to tears, myself included.
After all these years, I can still remember that sound, it was unforgettable.
I've heard many other singers, Jussi was incomparable. I don't want to sound
like a "Groupie" but he was truly, one of a kind! I hope you will continue to
investigate more of Jussi's performances and enjoy them as much as I do.
Regards,
Jim Hanrahan

recording was done in 1960. Shortly I
heard that Jussi never sang Calaf on stage so this is his only
rcording of Turandot. But in my opinion he still was in very good
condition.
