New York, Carnegie Hall, January 27, 1959 (live)

Carnegie Hall, NYC, January 1959, she had recently been fired by Rudolf Bing and the Met. I have posted the entire live recording: she begins in wobbly, acidic tone and ends the performance in astonishing vocal splendor. The long breath control, exemplary phrasing, chiaroscuro moonlit Bellinian line, red-hot high notes! Really, this is superlative singing, equal to her admirable 1952 Norma under Vittorio Gui in London

Important Information!!!
USA Telephone (404) 200-4776 We sell only opera recordings. The recordings are sent to you in paper sleeves with no tray card or inserts, just the raw discs with printed labels. These recordings are of nonprofessional quality that are in the public domain. The quality of these old opera recordings is not very good and they are meant for collectors and educational purposes only. Most of them are 30 or 40 years old, so they might be blurry, colors faded, and not sound very good, but they might not be available elsewhere. Please note that most of our recordings do not have tracks, they have 1 long track per disc.
