Jussi Bjorling (Aged 19) Ah leve-toi soleil 1930

This aria was recorded by Jussi Bjorling on 29th September 1930 when he was just 19 years old. It is from the Gounod's Opera 'Romeo and Juliette and is part of Romeo's impassioned serenade to Juliet,calling on her to rise like the sun and put the stars to shame by her brightness.It is the counterpart to Shakespeare's famous balcony scene in the drama. This is the original studio recording newly restored and given a concert atmosphere. I've restored/remastered quite a few of Jussi's wonderful recordings either separately or as part of compilation videos and if you want to listen to them all the link to the playlist is    • Jussi Bjorling : Four more excellent re-ma...
