A collector"s edition! This two-DVD set includes both the German and Italian versions of Ave Maria. Each has English subtitles and two PCM audio tracks. One track is the original, the other is restored. Booklet includes a biography of Erna Berger as well as a feast of rare photos of Beniamino Gigli. "One gains a wonderful idea of the disarming simplicity and generosity of the man which wholly exonerates him from a charge of ham acting. The voice itself pours out of him in that well-known, heartfelt manner, uniquely his, the honeyed mezza voce a thing to wonder at." -- Gramophone
