About Robert Merrill In Opera And Song: Firestone
For more than thirty years, The Voice of Firestone brought the world's greatest artists into the homes of music lovers. Now, through a special arrangement with the New England Conservatory in Boston, Kultur is proud to make these great telecasts available. American baritone Robert Merrill is one of a handful of opera singers whose performances and recordings provide the very definition of what one regards a great singing. Over a long and illustrious career, Merrill's pure, mellow tone, produced without effort, yet possessing great power and richness, has thrilled audiences throughout the world. His numerous appearances on The Voice of Firestone telecasts attest to the consistency of his singing, and the charismatic personality which made Robert Merrill one of this country's most celebrated artists.Selections:Telecast of September 9, 1957:I.
