She slowly rose from the chair,came forward, and when she got to " E mio," the roof fell in.NO OTHER soprano ever had the volume coupled with the beauty. I will treasure her forever.

What a shame we never really knew what Lanza was like live. He died at 36 and born 1/31/21. Before tasteless films,early acetates show much promise.

Marcello and I used to speak of that great squillo. We do not have this these days. I once asked him how he had such breath control in "E lucevan." He said, "It's a TRICK!!!!"

Marin is growing up, and I have more recent tapes that show much more of his talent, but I told him to wait for Puritani. How wonderful to find a kid who knows who Corelli was. Time will tell.

I just discovered Marin Bulic from Croatia (like Zinka) and here is as a kid with "Nessun Dorma" a tone UP. He now is 15, and the voice is maturing and I have "adopted" him. His recent tapes show an amazing talent, and I hope he has a fine career,and is nicer than Zinka.

I know her caretaker and he said she sang around the house till 100.I called her every birthday to hear that beautiful VERISMO voice. It was just a thrill for me, and I saw her Fedora and two Toscas, and the Met debut at 65. Great thrills in my life.
