This is the first Lanza compilation from Sepia Records to showcase the versatile tenor in all of the genres in which he excelled: opera, operetta, musical theatre, Neapolitan song, and popular song. It also features his only foray into South American music (Chilean composer Osm�n P�rez Freire's �Ay, ay, ay!) and an outtake of Schubert's Ave Maria.
The bonus tracks offer additional rarities: private rehearsals of two arias, a British television performance, and a revelatory acetate of Only a Rose. As a further attraction, this release includes the tenor's inimitably phrased Come Prima, a romantic recording heard throughout Europe in 2017 via the soundtrack of Fiat's popular commercial starring Oscar-winning actor Adrien Brody.
