With the development of sound film in the 1920s and 30s, the great tenors, such as Beniamino Gigli, Richard Tauber and Lauritz Melchior, became movie stars. Countless “singer movies” were made, but great vocal performances were also captured in documentaries and privately made movies. Using a wealth of rare restored material, this thirteen-part documentary series presents the great tenors from Enrico Caruso to Jussi Bjorling, and together with comprehensive essays, offers a deep and inspiring insight into the art of bel canto. Bel Canto – The Tenors of the 78 Era series was broadcast in thirty countries and awarded at the Columbus International Film Festival and at Classique en Images at the Louvre.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e  DETAILS:\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e  Picture format: 1080i NTSC 16:9 NTSC 4:3\u003cbr\u003e  Sound format: PCM Stereo\u003cbr\u003e  Subtitles: EN, FR, DE, IT, ES, JP, KR\u003cbr\u003e  Region code: A, B, C\u003cbr\u003e  No. of disc\/s: 2 BD50, 1 DVD5, 2 CDs","brand":"Naxos AudioVisual","offers":[{"title":"DVD with CD","offer_id":49705760456984,"sku":"747313538959","price":40.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/4346\/3192\/files\/3772759.jpg?v=1777563257","url":"https:\/\/hbdirect.com\/products\/belcanto-the-tenors-of-the-78-era","provider":"HBDirect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
