Following its radio debut in 1928, The Voice of Firestone aired on television between 1949 and 1963. Some of the world's most promising newcomers and established stars sang classical songs and current hits while Howard Barlow and his 46-piece orchestra accompanied them. Many of these telecasts are now available as part of this In Opera and Song series. This volume features some of the most popular sopranos who appeared on this television program, including Birgit Nilsson, Jeanette MacDonald, Joan Sutherland, Leontyne Price, Anna Moffo, Eleanor Steber, and Roberta Peters.
