Recorded November 1928, Milan, Milan Symphony Orchestra, Lorenzo Molajoli (conductor) Giannina Arangi-Lombardi, 1891 - 1951 Biography: www.cantabile-subito.de/Sopran...
A tremendous performance in the grand manner-and the authentic manner, too. Fabulous messa-di-voce and a masterful high arch to the soft high C, as written. Supreme.
Wonderful singer, Superb soft initial high C followed by a slight crescendo which not many can manage. Besides that this is not to ignore the entire aria itself which is beautifully done as well.
