In Reply to: BD Opera Puccini's "La Rondine" - not one of his greatest but not too bad posted by John C. - Aussie on April 10, 2010 at 22:30:51:
I have the old RCA recording with Moffo, et al. She was so great on that recording! I love playing through the vocal score too - and that main aria ("Chi il bel sogno di Doretta. . . ") is so echt Puccini and includes that great piano intro! It has some elements in common with the La bohème story, but I like Rondine better than I do bohème.I've been steering clear of this particular Blu-Ray however, because it was obviously [E-word deleted]. :-)
