The sound may be limited, but no Puccinian should miss this, where Björling gives the finest ever interpretation on record of the role of Des Grieux. … Merrill, too is superb as Manon's brother, giving delightful irony to the close to Act 1… rarely so effervescent… the Manon of Licia Albanese is sensitively sung
