FERRUCIO TAGLIAVINI RADIO RECITAL 1948 with HOWARD BARLOW

Ferruccio Tagliavini 14 August 1913 - 29 January 1995)[1 was an Italian operatic tenor mainly active in the 1940s and 1950s. Tagliavini was hailed as the heir apparent to Tito Schipa and Beniamino Gigli in the lyric-opera repertory due to the exceptional beauty of his voice, but he did not sustain his great early promise across the full span of his career.
