Summary:

Trained for a career in opera, Mario Lanza became the first true crossover artist when MGM made him a matinee idol during the 1950s. With his unique blend of both classical and popular music, Lanza's recordings sold in the millions. However, Lanza's sudden death at the age of 38 brought an abrupt end to his brief career. His voice - a gift from God - lives on in recordings, film, and the memories of family, friends, and fans.
