I was born in Grennsboro N.C. When I joined the La Scala Orchestra in 1980 Margaret Tynes welcomed me to Milan with open arms. She had a beautiful international career and should definitely be INCLUDED HERE. Her operatic and concert performances were appaluded in Europe´s major opera houses and auditoriums.

Nice post...but where was that last note??? I have a recording of Mattiwilda Dobbs doing French songs, but none of her doing opera. Does anyone out there have such a recording? I was at Eastman when she interviewed there. I'm not sure why she didn't join the faculty. Faye Robinson had quite a reputation in Europe when I was living there. I'm ashamed that I didn't know all of the people who were pictured; but I'm now excited to learn more about them. Thanx again.
