Nicola Gedda
Centenary Celebration
July 10 marks what would have been the 100th birthday of the great Nicolai Gedda — one of the most versatile and beloved tenors of the 20th century. Born in 1925 in Stockholm, Gedda possessed a remarkable gift for languages and an extraordinary vocal range, which allowed him to excel in an astonishing variety of roles, from the French lyric repertoire to Russian opera and German lieder. To commemorate this occasion, we’re offering 40% off all recordings featuring Nicolai Gedda, and this week we are also featuring him prominently in our free weekly streaming recordings. Celebrate the artistry of Nicolai Gedda with us. |
