Every so often in the recording industry, there's a miracle, and this is one of them. This 1956 recording was organized quickly in New York, not on the heels of a stage performance and not even with a noted orchestra. All the right singers were in town at the same time–some popping in to sing a few bars before heading for the airport–and the result is the single greatest recording of this oft-recorded opera. The leads–Victoria de Los Angeles and Jussi Björling–would make it special in any case. But Robert Merrill is excellent and Lucine Amara is a light-voiced, French-sounding, ultra-stylish Musetta. This is also the only full-length Puccini recording by the great conductor Sir Thomas Beecham. A classic. –David Patrick Stearns
