Enrico Caruso (born Errico Caruso; February 25, 1873 – August 2, 1921) was an Italian opera singer and one of the greatest tenors in history. Caruso was also the most popular singer in any genre in the first two decades of the 20th Century and one of the most important pioneers of recorded music. Caruso's popular recordings and his extraordinary voice, known for its mature power, beauty and unequalled richness of tone, made him perhaps the best-known operatic star of his era. Such was his influence on singing style, virtually all subsequent Italianate tenors (and many non-Italian tenors) have been his heirs to a greater or lesser extent. He remains famous, though he predated the publicity that would aid later stars of opera. DOWNLOAD audio file from http://www.sendspace.com/file/8b15m6 | WEB LINKS | IMAGES | SHOP Enrico Caruso
Pronouncing the titles of classical music and the names of composers and performers is a daunting task for many Americans because so many of the words are foreign to us. Adding to the difficulty is the fact that some of the names that look familiar are not pronounced as we would pronounce them. This dictionary provides some help in the form of pronunciations by a phonetic system devised by E. Douglas Brown of the staff of WOI Radio at Iowa State University. Many of the pronunciations in the dictionary were derived from tape-recorded pronunciations made by foreign nationals who were were speaking their respective native languages. 
The Chief Conductor of the Bolshoi Theatre, Aleksandr Vedernikov, has been pronounced the Best Conductor of the Year by BBC Music Magazine.

This year, nearly 90,000 people took part in the voting. Maestro Vedernikov was praised in the “Symphony Music” category for his interpretations of the Russian 20th century classical composer Dmitri Shostakovich. According to Daniel Jaffe, who sat on the jury, the musical critics were impressed by Vedernikov’s rendition, which so much reflected Shostakovich’s humour and his expressiveness.
