Raoul Jobin was a French-Canadian tenor, admired in French opera and lyric repertory. He sang at major houses in Europe and North America and became one of Canada’s important international singers.

In the Pristine catalogue he appears in Beecham’s 1943 Metropolitan Opera broadcast of Bizet’s Carmen, with Licia Albanese, Leonard Warren and Helen Olheim.

Jobin’s singing brought elegance, clarity and French style to a repertory where language and line are inseparable.

His page is justified by career standing and catalogue context. Jobin gives the Beecham Carmen shelf a bright francophone tenor profile.
