London had a herniated vocal chord and retired a bit earlier, but he was a DYNAMO of a singer. Saw him a lot.

You HAD to be there, especially for Gioconda, to hear those glorious tones. I am glad I graduated from college, cutting classes to stand for her perf.

My all-time favorite singer whom I saw live. She made my life so happy,even though her name KUNC represented her personality. May 17, 1906 was Nilsson's and Zinka's birthdays

I know her caretaker who said she could sing like this almost to the end at 104. I consider Magda as the vocal miracle of opera
