Björling

Judging singers is a matter of personal taste. However it is remarkable that Jussi Björling is once more extremely undervalued. Especially in his recordings from 1935 until 1955, he was outstanding. Check his Radames, his Canio, but also Adelaide from Beethoven.

RE: Björling

Andreas, thank you for your support of Björling, I am quite fond of him. You say he is undervalued, yet others would say he is overvalued. And we would have to accept that if our only criterion is taste. So wee need something else to judge by, don't you think?
