THIS is music. Sad to see how music has degraded over the decades. At least THIS music will last forever. Not like the trash they are pumping out theses days!
@BlogBitch Yes, while that could be said about "The New Moon" it is actually more correctly described as something in between "real" opera and Broadway show even though it did play on Broadway.
Either way, Ms. Washington does a fine job with this song.
@EJL88 , The trash they are pumpin' out these days wouldn't sell if idiots didn't buy it. And if you want to be fair- Much of the the doo wop of the 1950s was trash to me. The Beatles saved the day in the next decade, since their music heavily influenced all the groups
OMG! Finding this is like discovering a treasure. I have loved this singer since I was a lad 195..... :-) Dinah one of the greatest on the planet then and now. No one can touch her today. She was so unhappy and that breaks my heart. An incredible loss! Thank you.
qué simpatía que tenía esta mujer :)

@EJL88 This was written for an opera in the 1920s.

@SatchmoSings :) The New Moon was a Broadway Musical, not really Opera. Lyrics by Hammerstein before he met Rodgers!

Notice she actually raised the key from the Dinah Jams version. Now that's what I call a pro.

@THERIGHTREVEREND Pretty sure she rasied it on 'Such a night' too. One of the greatest singers ever!
