Now THERE was a voice! He appears in about 110 titles on CDs in my survey of him. He played the trumpet, too, as evidenced on CD. Died far too young but left an incredible legacy of commercial and private recordings.

Not Strauss, but the popular and very sentimental Wien, nur du allein. It always makes me want to fly right back to Vienna!! (Notice the intimate "du" in the song title.)

(I don't know why the person who posted this included an image of the 'chain bridge' in Budapest!)
