Description
This CD celebrates Mario Lanza's centenary with a collection spanning his entire career from his radio broadcasts to studio gems from the last months of his brief life. Four of the songs are making their first appearance on a commercial CD; a spectacular rehearsal of "Some Day" and extended versions from Lanza's own archives of material recorded for The Great Caruso.
Other rarities include live performances of duets from The Student Prince and Verdi's Otello. Throughout the CD, Lanza's celebrated versatility is on full display, with every musical genre in which he excelled represented here.
