R. Tebaldi & A. Kraus "Lontano, lontano" Mefistofele 1965

[semiramide1945]

what a pairing- Tebaldi & Kraus. Amazing. I never would have dreamed he would have sung in this opera- Wonderful blend of the voices- Of course, she was a master in this and so many verismo works - thanks for this. I'm glad I found it here- Ernesto

I was there too. Elena Suliotis made her sensational American debut as Elena of Troy that night, also. Ghiaurov was the Mefistofele.

I actually saw this performance in Chicago in October of 1965, and I still vividly remember it. It was Tebaldi's final operatic appearance in Chicago and the audience kind of perceived it.

There was a tremendous audience ovation that followed this duet. I STILL remember it!

This is the first time I have heard them sing together, and they are beautiful.

[Dondinin]

It is unfortunatelly the only. It is great that these two sacred monsters sang at least once together.

PERFECT! Beautiful voices and great harmony...
