Synopsis

Album Description
2010 collection. Mario Lanza was an American tenor and Hollywood movie star of the late 1940s and the 1950s. The son of Italian immigrants, he began studying to be a professional singer at the age of 15. Orchestral conductor Arturo Toscanini would reputedly later call him the greatest voice of the 20th century. Others referred to him extravagantly as the new Caruso, after his instant success in Hollywood films, while MGM hoped that he would become the movie studio's singing Clark Gable due to his good looks and powerful voice. This collection features both studio and live recordings along with some favorites from his movie career. 50 tracks. Performance.
