{"product_id":"boris-christoff_boris-christoff_2013_war","title":"Boris Christoff","description":"Boris Christoff reigned supreme in bass roles in the post-war world until the end of the 1960s. Philip II, Boris Godunov, and Mephisto without rival, this fine musician and great tragedian did not have the largest voice in the world, but his dark timbre and striking portrayals made him the bass in Paris, London, New York, and Milan for 20 years. This box set, beyond the opera arias that made him famous, highlights his genius as a melodist, capable of thundering as well as infinitely nuanced. One of the great lyrical artists of the 20th century who recorded most of his discography for EMI.
