Nicolai Ghiaurov (September 13, 1929 – June 2, 2004) was a Bulgarian opera singer and one of the most famous basses of the postwar period. He was admired for his powerful, sumptuous voice, and was particularly associated with roles of Mussorgsky and Verdi. Ghiaurov married the Bulgarian pianist Zlatina Mishakova in 1956 and Italian soprano Mirella Freni in 1978, and the two singers frequently performed together. They lived in Modena until Ghiaurov's death in 2004 of a heart attack.
This disk draws from Ghiaurov's Russian and French repertoire, mostly from roles with which he was closely associated, but featuring also some relative rarities in his repertoire. While he sometimes over-enunciates, Ghiaurov's voluminous voice, sense of drama, and legato line are excellent in Godunov's solos and the scene with Shuisky. However, in the Act II monologue, the balance is sometimes off between voice and orchestra, Ghiaurov seeming so much closer to the microphones that the distance is distracting.

Mozart: Don Giovanni, . 27, Act 1 - "Madamina, il catalogo è questo". by Nicolai Ghiaurov & London Symphony Orchestra & Sir Edward Downes. The basso cantante is not so common a voice category and although Nicolai Ghiaurov could happily cross into another bass Fach and make a fine job of either Leporello or even the bass-baritone role of the Don, his finest qualities are displayed in roles which exploit his seamless legato and noble tone. I am thus particularly pleased that so many of the items here are from Russian operas, in which, I think, he was almost unequalled.
