IL BARBIERE DI SIVIGLIA
Dec 18 @ 9:00 PM – 11:55 PM


IL BARBIERE DI SIVIGLIA:Rossini
Erede; Valdengo, Pons, Di Stefano, Baccaloni, Hines
Original Air Date: 12/16/1950
MOD Audio
SID.19510321
This performance is also available on Sony Historic CD. I always enjoy Valdengo, and Di Stefano is interesting, but Pons is almost NEVER to my taste. She has a long Met career and was a big star. It is not a faceless Barber, but I prefer Corena and gang from later years.
