Summary: From the broadcast of January 2, 1965, here is an episode of Biographies in Music by Francis Robinson on famed tenor Beniamino Gigli. In addition to biographical information, the listener will hear excerpts from La gioconda, La boheme, Lucia di Lammermoor, Le roi d’ys, Lohengrin Andrea Chenier and “Marie, Ah Marie”. I have inserted at the end an excerpt from Carmen with his daughter Rina. Unfortunately the recording of the episode begins a bit late.
