Giovanni Malipiero (tenor) Despite having a voice of reputedly high quality, which could have made him a highly paid global star, Giovanni Malipiero (1906-70) restricted his career almost exclusively to Italy, turning down international engagements. These wonderful recordings were made for the Cetra and Parlophone labels between 1937 and 1941. “Malipiero restricted his repertoire to lyric roles, which he essayed with an unusual timbre and exceptional artistic gifts as captured in these recordings from 1930 to '41.” BBC Music Magazine, June 2009 ***** | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
