Mario Lanza - You Do Something To Me
Review by Queen Majeeda
Mario Lanza's album You Do Something To Me is a timeless classic that showcases the tenor's incredible vocal range and emotional depth. The album features a mix of popular ballads and classical pieces, all delivered with Lanza's signature passion and intensity.
From the opening track "You Do Something To Me," Lanza's rich, velvety voice draws the listener in and holds them captivated throughout the entire album. His renditions of "Because You're Mine" and "Serenade" are particularly moving, with Lanza infusing each note with a palpable sense of longing and desire.
The album also includes several operatic pieces, including "La Donna e Mobile" from Verdi's Rigoletto and "Vesti La Giubba" from Leoncavallo's Pagliacci. Lanza's mastery of these challenging pieces is a testament to his vocal prowess and his ability to convey the full range of human emotion through his singing.

About Mario Lanza
Born: 31 January 1921, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
Died: 07 October 1959, Rome, Italy (aged 38)
Lanza was a classically-trained vocalist, who recorded everything- from operas, to musical comedy and to popular music.
Lanza grew up a handsome and athletic youth, helping out in his family's grocery store in Philadelphia. He gained his appreciation of music as a young boy, listening to his father's recordings of the great operatic singer , which he would accompany for the entertainment of customers and neighbors. When he was nineteen he began to receive voice-coaching for two years from the former operatic singer Irene Williams. Lanza was then awarded a scholarship to the Berkshire Music Center at Tanglewood, after auditioning for .
On completion of his scholarship he was drafted and eventually transferred to Special Services, appearing in two shows for the army as part of the 'Winged Victory' concerts created by , billed as 'The Caruso of the Air Force'.
Aged 26, Lanza performed at the Hollywood Bowl where he impressed three members of the audience from MGM, Ida Koverman, Louis B. Mayer and . Mayer signed him to the film company and he made his debut in 'That Midnight Kiss' with Grayson and Ethel Barrymore, followed by a number of successful films. Lanza's most notable film was 'The Great Caruso', in 1951, in which he played the part of the heralded singer who had provided the inspiration for his career in operatic entertainment.
