5.0 out of 5 stars Every true singers idol, 7 Sep 2004
By A Customer
When Swedish supertenor Jussi Björling passed away in 1960, the world lost its premier tenor much too early. He was only 49 and still posessed a perfect and unparalelled vocal technique which had remained flawless for a period of 30 years. In this concert from New York 5 years earlier, we can hear how the greatest singing voice ever really sounds. There is no limits to what this man can sing. His voice has no limits in the upper register and no limits in the low register. He sings lieder and opera equally brilliant. He can spin a dolce pianissimo as easy as he can blow everyone away with incredibly powerful dramatic singing.
He can sing the fabulous Jeanie with the light brown hair and make it sound like a shining diamond, and he can sing high notes that makes the 3 tenors sound like amateurs. He just opens his mouth, and out comes the most beautiful sound you can imagine.
Before Jussi Björling, there was Caruso, but after Jussi Björling, there is still only Björling. And there will be no one like him. The original tapes adds 50% brilliance to Björlings voice compared to all the previous compilations on CD with this singer. Thanks to RCA for that, and Pleeeeaaase give us more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Jussi's voice - pure silver, 29 Feb 2008
By Ralph Moore (Bishop's Stortford, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
There was virtually no deterioration in Bjorling's voice over a career of thirty years before his untimely death - from heart-failure exacerbated by his alcoholism - at 49. This Carnegie Hall recital, long available on LP and in bits on CD, is here issued in its entirety, only the raucous and rapturous applause trimmed to allow it to fit on to one disc. Bjorling's opening "Adelaide", lovely as it is, certainly does not match the hushed intensity and poised delicacy of his famous and unmatched 1939 recording and it is clear that he takes a while for the voice to warm up, but by the time he gets to the "Dream" from "Manon" the control is a thing of beauty. One must make allowance for the fact that he was singing to a large audience in a large hall and thus had to sing out more, and I could wish that the audience could restrain themselves from expressing their appreciation until the music of each number had actually ended but the atmosphere of a great occasion is certainly captured. the songs in Swedish are more of a rarity and it is clear how much Bjorling felt free to let himself go here, but the operatic arias are similarly untrammelled by any sense of restraint; that liquidly beautiful voice, impassioned and always suggesting a hint of tears, pours forth like molten silver. I was only a few months old when this concert took place but Bjorling will alwys be one of the handful of tenors, headed by Caruso, who move me beyond others. A must for fans and enough to convert tyros.
