George Hotel, tucked away just north of Russell Square on the edge of Bloomsbury in a classic curved crescent of Grade II listed Georgian town-houses (built c.1809 - 1811) overlooking gated gardens and tennis courts.

 GEORGE LONDON
George London was born in Montreal, Canada, the only child of naturalized American parents.
Two years later, London took a decisive step: he temporarily abandoned his career as a concert singer in America to go to Europe, where he was unknown because he believed he needed further study and the invaluable experience of singing in Europe.
At all times George London continues to study and practice with his teacher, Donna Paola Nikova, for though appreciative of the heights he has already attained, London firmly believes that the true artist must always continue to work, grow and develop.

 Opera Today : George London: Spirituals
Given London’s other pursuits at the time, speculation may extend to the image the singer wanted to convey to the larger public that knew him as an outstanding exponent of Wagner’s music and a fine portrayer of the title role of Mussorgsky’s opera Boris Godunov.
Nevertheless, it is difficult to fault the execution, especially London’s articulate rendering of the melodies with his resonant and smooth bass voice.
For whatever reasons London had in proscribing the release of this recording during his lifetime, it should not be taken for any over reasons in his performances.
