Jerome Hines — American Musician born on November 08, 1921, died on February 04, 2003
Jerome A. Hines was an American operatic bass who performed at the Metropolitan Opera from 1946 to 1987. Standing over two meters tall, his stage presence and stentorian voice made him ideal for such roles as Sarastro in The Magic Flute, Mephistopheles in Faust, Ramfis in Aida, the Grand Inquisitor in Don Carlos, the title role of Boris Godunov and King Mark in Tristan und Isolde...
