Alfredo Kraus (tenor)

Orquesta Filarmonica de Gran Canaria, Jose Collado

This publication, in collaboration with the Spanish television, features an unforgettable recital given by Alfredo Kraus in Las Palmas in 1995. It is a video recording of great historical and artistic significance, which documents the splendour of the Spanish tenor’s voice (still unchanged despite the years) and his flawless technique. Text and singing merge into one and become artistic expression: a lesson for young singers; a must for lovers of opera.
