George London
Born: 30th May 1920, Montreal, Quebec, Canada
Died: 24th March 1985, Armonk, New York
Nationality: American
The wide-ranging, warm bass-baritone voice that emerges from George London’s recordings was enhanced on stage by a strikingly handsome appearance and an uncommon acting ability. He left a vivid impression as a captivating Don Giovanni, a properly brooding Eugene Onegin and mysterious Dutchman, a tortured Boris Godunov and Amfortas, a suavely malevolent Scarpia, and a dashing Escamillo.
