Highlights from a live 1961 performance of "La Rondine" with Licia Albanese and Daniele Barioni. The conductor is Giuseppe Bamboschek. The sound is on the distant side, but it is a wonderful performance.(51 min.)
In the photo, Licia kisses the stage of the old Met in 1966, as this was the last performance. I was there, and it was a very sad night. |
