Alfredo Kraus "Una furtiva lagrima" L'elisir d'amore

[SteveRitter1]

I've said much the same on another recording of this aria by Alfredo, but it bears repeating. Iwas hired by the Lyric Opera of Chicago when I was 16, to sing in the chorus. I met him, soon after, and he started giving me voice lessons, so that my voice would last. The result? I will re-enter the Lyric next year, at the age of 63! Many thanks to this gentle soul, with his extraordinary voice!

I believe he was 62 when this was filmed, no? Still had a voice of pure gold. What an incredible tenor!
