I should have mentioned that the Busch Figaro omits dialogue -- still, the performance is extraordinary. I've never heard the Busch Giovanni, but your mentioning it will cause me to seek it out. Last, I urge another hearing of the Toscanini Falstaff -- I think it's Verdi's greatest opera, and the performance has yet to be equaled.
Good to chat with you,

I assume you meant recitative, not dialogue since there is none.

OK, recit then -- aging without grace.

Travis...there is in Carmen and others....sprechtstimme. Spoken dialogue as opposed to recitative which is sung and moves the plot forward. Aria is sung and expresses feelings about the charter, or conditions of the moment.
I know.
I was answering another poster about Marriage of Figaro which does not have dialogue. It has recitative.

The other poster knows too -- thoughtless he is.
