This weekend was the 150th anniversary of the birth of the first world-famous tenor, the (literally) record-breaking Enrico Caruso.

He died in Naples, in August 1921, having refused to sing there for a decade after once getting booed.

Among other commemorations, we hear that Naples intends to open a Caruso Museum in the disused royal palace on July 20 this year.
