"Famous opera arias with Jussi Björling (1911-1960), one of the biggest tenors of all time, recorded at the legendary Metropolitan Opera House in New York when he was at the top of his career in the 1940s and 1950s. The box set contains arias from operas like "Il Trovatore" and "Don Carlo" by Verdi, "La Bohème" and "Tosca" by Puccini, and Gounod's "Romeo and Juliette" - and much more. Björling's counterparts in the different opera scenes are represented by celebrated singers like Bidu Sayao, Robert Merrill, Frank Valentino and Elisabeth Söderström, among others".
