Bird. A choir boy in his native Bulgaria, Christoff (1914-1993) left a
successful career as a lawyer to study opera in Italy, where he reached stardom
in the late 1940s. Until 1956, Christoff was denied entry into the US
because his homeland had a communist regime, even while Bulgaria was refusing
him permission to return home. A powerful performer on stage, Christoff carried
on some well publicized disputes with other opera figures, including Maria
Callas and Herbert von Karajan. Corners lightly worn and creased. Lightly toned.
Otherwise, fine condition.
