EMI Classics is proud to present Volume 5 of The Record of Singing. This 10-CD set ushers in a new golden age of timeless vocalists like Maria Callas, Elisabeth Schwarzkopf, Victoria de los Angeles, Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, Nicolai Gedda and Boris Christoff, and then goes on to the subsequent generations of big names such as Franco Corelli, Plácido Domingo, José Carreras, Montserrat Caballé, Mirella Freni and several hundred more, including vocal stars of today such as Angela Gheorghiu, Roberto Alagna, Rolando Villazón, Natalie Dessay and many others.
Because each singer appears only once, this set allows the listener to compare and evaluate the voices and singing styles from the introduction of stereo in 1955, right up to the sophisticated refinement of today’s digital technology. A must-have for fans of vocal music!
