For many, Caruso is still the Tenor of the Century. Pearl's comprehensive Caruso Edition lets us hear why. Twelve discs in four boxes cover the whole of his recorded output. Volume One is devoted to his earliest recordings--the 1902-1908 period. From those first 1902 sessions recorded in a hotel room with piano accompaniment, Caruso displayed "star" quality--through his unstinted outpouring of golden tone, and his joy in communicating the splendors of both the music and the voice. By the third disc, we're in the presence of the world's most famous tenor, joined on some tracks by equally renowned colleagues. Ward Marston's excellent transfers come closer to capturing the sound of Caruso's recorded voice than competing versions, albeit with noise from the old 78s that may be troublesome for some. --Dan Davis
