Still weeping over his passing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dmitri returned to the Met in 2015.

The love expressed by the audience

will go on forever as we remember him.

  Totally Devastated.!!! My tears

are unending. He was so sweet and kind. I always

got those kisses on the cheek from this

beautiful man, who will live

forever in our hearts. God Bless Him!!!

Hard to find right words for the

glorious Victoria's voice!!!!! Here is "Dove sono?"

Joseph Calleja wants people to 

call him "Joe." That is the kind

of guy he is. When he met me, he

said I was more famous than he is.

  TRUE?????????????????

If you are not feeling well, do NOT

listen to Sirach von Bodengraven!

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!!

  I am finding old audio stuff for you.

Are you thrilled??????

Great fun guy, Brian Hymel, in French arias.

He is such a wonderful person, and has

a beautiful family. BUY IT! I get

no commission on the full CD.

Callas, Corelli, Nicolai

from Trieste.Note Corelli attack before Callas D!!!!!!!!!    Nothing like this today!!!

Here are early recordings of my dear friend

Diana Soviero.Friends since 1977. I hope you like them.

   THIS is what Leonie was!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

She had her flaws, but at 5:09 you hear something stupendous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cry...cry.....for the lady who knew her fate and

who was a miracle for all of us to behold.

She had her flaws, but NO ONE gave what she

accomplished as a sensational artist!!!!!

  I had so many glitches in my audio files,I have been sending you Videos,which I hope you enjoy. Hope to get back to the audio podcasts soon..Meanwhile, you do have archives.

Thanks for your support   Charlie

  I play you my tape, with my yelling....at the greatest miracle. as the 65 year old Magda Olivero makes her Met debut in 1975.

The ovation is cut...It was one of the greatest things in my opera life...Note 3:16.."RiMUUUUneri" cosi.

The miracle lasted until age 104...but her caretaker said there was voice there almost till the end.

Bless her!!!!!!!!!!!!I miss those birthday phone calls,where she spoke in "Verismo"

  I just called Virginia to tell her I had put up clips of Nicola-Rossi Lemeni,born 11/6/28. They were such a loving couple and she misses him so much!!!!!!!

  Beloved forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
