Recent Notes
Let's begin the week with absolute beauty.
Mario Lanza singing "Vesti La Giubba" (from his last film, "For The First Time", 1958).
A peaceful Sunday with "Hab mir's gelobt" from Strauss' "Der Rosenkavalier".
Kiri Te Kanawa, Anne Howells, Aage Haugland and Barbara Bonney with Orchestra and Chorus of the Royal Opera House, conducted by
Georg Solti.
Guys, when you see me posting stupid stuff, let me know.
Sometimes I upload the wrong video, sometimes my English proficiency tricks me, and sometimes I am next to hallucinations.
Most of the time I get it immediately after posting, so I delete & correct later, but sometimes it just flies about my head.
Have a great Sunday!
If you don't know what to listen to, my suggestion for today is Yehudi Menuhin performing Brahms' Violin Concerto in D major, Op. 77.
Off the usual path, I present to you "Sexy Tango" with Mauro Caiazza and Daniela Kizyma.

GenX? ๐
Who remembers this 1994 moment, with The 3 Tenors, singing O Sole Mio?

Especially when thinking it's before the Second World War.
Somehow, I still have a post for today, a history page. There's only one known recording (from 1937 I think) where Carl Orff himself is seen listening to "O Fortuna", during the final rehearsals, so let's end this week in style. Conducted by a very young Ricardo Mutti, with the Berlin Philharmonic.
I was wondering if you would get it. ๐
I used commas because it's fully quoted, not my opinion. The first part it's from the advertisement (German) and the second part from their YouTube channel (French). Sometimes I just post about events and so on. ๐คท In this case, it's more about the place, and I would have no regrets being there.
PS: I wrote in my profile that this is an amateur's corner, look at everything I post through this point of view, I post what I like or just because I listen to it and I want to share.
