From Perotin to Prokofiev (and beyond), performed by Caruso to Khatia, it's all here.

Fantastic!

I attended a Gerard Souzay recital with two high-school friends - all three of us loved it. (And as I've mentioned before, Souzay had Dalton Baldwin play three Debussy Preludes as a solo interlude - I appreciated the accompanist getting some unexpected solo time!) I got Souzay's Philips recordings of Schubert's Schone Mullerin and Winterreise, Schumann's Dichterliebe, Beethoven's An die ferne Geliebte, and later (when he was a bit too old) the complete Faure songs with Elly Ameling on EMI/Pathe (five LP's IIRC).

As for the Emperor Concerto, I did not get it when I first heard it, if you can believe that! It wasn't until years later, when I guess I heard some better performances, that I grew to like the work.

And finally, as for Sophia Loren, I have to confess: I had the hots for her when I was in high school!
