Notes & Reviews:

Sure to be one of the most popular titles in the entire vast Opera d'Oro catalog, this 1958 Turandot features two of opera's mega-stars in the lead roles, the great Birgit Nilsson as the Princess, and the beautiful tenor of Giuseppe di Stefano (so often partnered with Maria Callas) as Calaf. This features one of the most radiant "Nessun Dormas" on disc.
