Ebe Stignani  7/11/03 was to have 

been the Norma on Cetra. I adore her!!!!

For me, GREATEST EVER!!!!!!

Superb Australian tenor w.French citizenship.

Never came to Met..a shame!!!!!

(IN)famous Gran Scena opera co.

Ira Siff,Met broadcast commentator in the

great Tosca scene. I like especially when

she (he?? It??) finds the Salvocondotto

and the Yiddish "E Avanti a Lui" cracks me

up.  Ira is a great coach and he KNOWS 

opera traditions, so Ira (Vera) is perfect

as one of the hosts on Met broadcasts.

When he went up..you DIED!!!!!!

PURE JOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  UNREAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

7/12/1895 Kirsten Flagstad...LEGEND!!!

My friends tell me in person it was pure STEREO!!!!!!

This is the world premiere of the songs.

7/11/25  The GOD of tenors.

I saw his Met debut(Faust).The man

was a legend for all to hear!!!!

  Last note is closest to LIVE Tebaldi.

You DIED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  Michael Spyres...Placido should

study with him. (I am so mean!)
