Oh! Parsifal! Even the '87 Kalamata charity recital! I was there, you know.... Very nice of you to reup all this material.
Do you want me to scan you the program (autograph included!) and mail it to you?
Kalo Pasxa ;-)
Thank you so much Parifalito. You have brought back so many happy memories. If it is not too much trouble, can you please upload the Vienna Opera performances too and the Carnegie Hall Orfeo with Muti and the Philadelphia Orchestra? you are an angel!
By the way, who was the Don Jose in the Athens Megaron?
What Vienna Opera performances? I ve already uploaded a part of I Capuleti with Agnes and La Grube, the Prophete , L Italiana and Herodiade. I dont think i have anything else from the Staatsoper.(The Fledermaus was there too?) But i have a very exciting recital of Agnes in Vienna where she sings Manon Lescaut's "Sola perduta abbandonata"....
I am looking for her Charlotte and Eboli from Vienna as well as earlier stuff such as her Adalgisa, Didon, Bianca, Angelina, Rosina etc. I hope they will turn up one day. But in the meantime, the prospect of her Manon Lescaut is most tempting. Thanks ever so much!
There are recordings of these Werther and Don Carlo, there are also recordings of 3 Adalgisas, i have no Dido though, a couple of live Angelinas yes but no live Rosina. There are people that claim to have the video of Werther with Jose Carreras but i have never seen not even 5 seconds of it.
PS. Neil Shicoff was her Don Jose in Athens...
