Nicolai Baskov

[hpooch]

Our PBS TV Station has been broadcasting a special of a TV Concert from Russia recorded 2 years ago with Tenor Nicolai Baskov.
I thought this singer was fantastic! He is only 34 tears old, a blond adonis(according to female reviews). He sound like Mario Lanza!
Have any of you seen or heard of him? I couldn't find him on Amazon.com as his one CD or DVD is listed as "Not Available".

I have never heard that name before. Sounds interesting.

JUST RELEASED ON AMAZON----
"Nikolai Baskov" - Romantic Journey On CD - I hope you have seen & listened to him on "You Tube"- Most of the songs are on the C.D.

Karl, if you like classical tenors, this man is as good or if not better than Mario Lanza & as good as Bocelli ! ! Check him out, please!

I saw him on the PBS special a few months ago. I enjoyed the program, especially the Russian songs and his version of Caruso, which seemed to be his signature piece.
