Notes & Reviews:

George Bernard Shaw is said to have remarked, "Tenors are a disease." This CD, however, is for the many opera goers who love singing and for whom the tenor voice is the most exciting of all. And, besides the opportunity of hearing a range of excellent, but rarely heard voices, there is also the opportunity of sampling some rarely heard music.
