this famous recording is available on Amazon. recorded in 1959 (I think) and released in 1960, just before Bjoerling died. If you like this you MUST get their recording of La Boheme under Thomas Beecham, also widely available
@pb1609 you are so correct. Jussi and Victoria were the perfect Puccini voices. Yes I have that recording and they transform a popular staple into a delight....
Sometimes you hear it for the first time, as if you never heard it before; yet you know every rise and cadence, every gap and gasp. So, how can one hear things repetitively for the first time? I think it is because the Diva mesmorises us... , reaches in where the surgeon cannot go... and click!

I get goosebumps when I listen to this. Absolutely beautiful. Victoria is the best Butterfly ever!

I agree.Victoria is the best Butterfly of ever (and Carmen, Mimi, Manon, Desdemona, Lauretta, Margueritte, Salud...), She IS Butterfly.

VDLA is Butterfly. I have thought that for 50 years.

The best of Butterflys. The most Japanese in manner. The most beautiful of voice and spirit.
