| Legendary Isoldes like Kirsten Flagstad and incomparable Tristans like Lauritz Melchior still crowd the public imagination, haunting present-day sopranos and tenors a good half-century after these paragons' retirements. While a recording may never compete with hearing Kirsten Flagstad or Yehudi Menuhin live, what dancegoer wouldn't love to catch even a glimpse of Edward Villella in Prodigal Son or Nora Kaye in Pillar of Fire? In between you'll sample the imperishable gifts of such greats as Maria Callas and Magda Olivero (both in Tosca) as well as Joan Sutherland, Leontyne Price, Rosa Ponselle (in her hilarious MGM screen test), Kirsten Flagstad, and Renata Tebaldi, who, with the help of Jussi Bjorling, feasts on Act I of La Boheme (you won't believe how Puccini transforms two unprepossessing middle-aged people into the world's most ardent young lovers). |
