This review is from: The Golden Age of Singing, Volume One 1900 - 1910 (Audio CD)

This is a wonderful selection of opera arias by the legendary singers who made the early 20th century one of the golden ages of opera. The quality of this recording is exceptionally good, without the distortional background noise of the originals. All four volumes are highly recommended.
