The present volume is the eighth in a series devoted to Beniamino Gigli's 'singles' – his song and aria recordings not issued as part of complete opera sets. The aim of the series is to include every Gigli recording released at the time, as well as every published alternative take and, wherever available, unpublished takes. The sides [sic] here are presented in the order in which they were recorded. For this Naxos series, restoration engineer Mark Obert-Thorn has remastered his original, critically-acclaimed Romophone transfers, cleaning them up further and re-doing some tracks in their entirety. Of particular interest in this eighth volume is repertoire not usually associated with Gigli such as the famous castrato aria from Handel's 'Xerxes'; and a rarely heard aria from Gluck's 'Paride ed Elena'.
