This is now the oldest broadcast to appear in the Sirius series. Ponselle and Tibbett are absolute magic in the 2nd act duet under Panizza. It’s not SACD, but still a remarkable document. The Met database is still [October 2016]) not up to date on some of these more recent additions to the Sirsi and MOoD coverage. This is now the oldest broadcast to appear in the Sirius series. Ponselle and Tibbett are absolute magic in the 2nd act duet under Panizza. Will be curious to hear what improvement if any they’ve made to the sound.
