Issue of the Italian post office for the centenary of the birth of Enrico Caruso.


Enrico Caruso (Italian pronunciation: [enˈriːko kaˈɾuːzo]) (February 25, 1873 – August 2, 1921) was an Italian tenor. He sang to great acclaim at the major opera houses of Europe and North and South America, appearing in a wide variety of roles from the Italian and French repertoires that ranged from the lyric to the dramatic. Caruso also made approximately 290 commercially released recordings from 1902 to 1920. All of these recordings, which span most of his stage career, are available today on CDs and as digital downloads. Caruso's 1904 recording of Vesti la giubba was the first sound recording to sell a million copies. read
