Not great sound, but an amazing Callas recording for her upcoming birthday (Dec.2 or 3)

Whether or not you celebrate this holiday in your land, be most thankful for music in your lives, not to forget friends and family, and I thank you all for allowing me to bring opera into your lives, as it was brought to me.

Most sincerely,    Charlie

The kid might be good some day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This may not be opera, but I was just totally captivated by this "kid."  AMAZING!!!!!!!

    Zeani,Cotrubas,and now.........................Something about that land that is so conducive to emotion!!!!!!!

What a thrill to hear my dear Marisa Galvany (one of her fake names),friends for 50 years...one of the most exciting singers in my experience....and when we did Bolena, I did check to see if there was some microphone down her throat.  What a treasure she has been.

Bruce Burroughs never did her book....What tales he could tell!!!!!!

NEW DISCOVERY!!!! Go to Youtube for more of this superb baritone, and/or buy the DVD Attila from Parma.

  Remember how many baritones I have heard!!

Mario walked across the stage..we went NUTS!! Get the stopwatch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How wonderful to discover a new talent!!!!!  Mme. Branchini is the Odabella on the Parmi DVD Attila. She has the excitement, attention to the word and phrase..great attacks..and mixed chest voice........We could use her HERE. I hope she has a huge career.......I was thrilled, especially since I have heard so many superb sopranos in my life.
