Voice Of Firestone: George London In Opera & Song

GEORGE LONDON

Canadian-born bass-baritone George London (1920-1985) made a tremendous impact on the operatic world in the course of a fifteen-year career cut short by illness. His beautifully textured, dark-hued voice encompassed a wide vocal range, from the depths of Boris Godunov to the baritone role of Amonasro in Verdi's 'Aida' (the role of his 1951 Metropolitan Opera debut). He was equally renowned in Wagner as well as Mozart, and his keen dramatic sense and strikingly handsome appearance made him an ideal Don Giovanni.
