Wonderful to hear Amelita Galli-Curci and Ezio Pinza both singing in this great sextet of

Donizetti. I wish conductor and orchestra were identified.

Wonderful. I wish I could find what has become of Antonella

Manotti, co-star with Matteuzzi in 1982 Haydn "Lo Speziale" with Luigi Alva, Marc Andreae +

Italian Swiss orchestra.

Bring back Galli-Curci! Great singers should live and stay young forever. Young people should study and emulate this performance.

Hear Francisco Fernandez also play Joseph Haydn piano concert in C back in 1999 when he was 12 years old with Chiapas musical group.

More people should know this - it brings out Tab's voice very nicely

Thank you for the comment

Hear Dinah on "Ed Wynn's Piano Bike" her TV debut early 1950s singing

"Shine on Harvest Moon" and "Tea for Two". She is great currently on You Tube

I had a question from Beliaris about Glazunov symphonies - I am beginning to listen to them and like them very much but am not yet expert - I think there are nine and the five I have heard are excellent, but I do not have time for close analysis. The violin concerto is excellent, particularly a 1...

I like this video very much. Who are the excellent actors? What have they been doing since making this?

Sorry to see her smoking - she was only 63 when she passed away - I was very fond of her in the original 1965 version of "That Darn Cat" - she was perfect as the terrified bank teller

This is one of Hayley's Mills's best scenes with the great comedian Ed Wynn as the nervous jeweler, Mr. Hofstader - Ed Wynn was 78 years old at the time! Hayley Mills should have been twins!

and we should all remain 13 years old forever. Hooray for Lillian Disney discovering her!

I wonder if any more of this movie is avalable than these 91 seconds. I think this is the best film of Tab Hunter I have seen. Amazon does not have copies available, it says

I think the movie is somewhat different from the novel about Abra's father and step-mother - the incident about throwing the diamond in the river makes a convenient short explanation why Abra can understand Cal's emotions about being unloved.

Pohjola's Daughter ranks high among Sibelius best tone poems, + Ormandy

+ Collins made probably the best published performances, but 21st century

conductors and orchestras should keep this music alive with continued performances - not fear comparisons! to great of past

The rhythmic feeling in the drawings is extremely interesting, suggesting the students were listening carefully

You should make a violin-piano arrangement of Schubert's early overture D 190

to Vierjahrige Posten, with a remarkable reseumblance to Verdi's Aida Act III overture.

Who are the four lead soloists here - they work wonderfully with Leonard Bernstein?

I am very fond of this Haydn comic opera and recommend this performance in Greek.Don't be discouraged by the malicious comment - keep up the good work!

I like it ! Especially the singer. Somebody's old comment is unfair. Too many people make comments to show off their supposed expertise. This is well done and enjoyable!

Marilyn Monroe and Jane Russell were both wonderful, and when acting together,

there is a wonderful chemistry between them. Tragic that neither left biological childrem after them.

I bet Hakan is a good dancer. His body movements as he palys the piano are graceful and intriguing. Someone should write words to this wonderful Schubert f minor Moment Musical opus 94 no. 3

good luck to RLee1976 in your studies following Montserratt Caballe. I would be very happy to have any videos of your studies and performances.

Wonderful singing - very expressive both singers - fine photography - I wonder where this was recorded and filmed with the lovely staircase in back?

Disregard some of the silly comments you get about singing technique. The intent may be helpful, but they are opinionated and probably wrong.

Delightful. Good luck in your career. Continue to explore the Verdi repertoire.

Kpunkt -You play superbly. I like everything by Haydn, but this Hob 30 in A deserves to be better known. You should try some of the non-Hoboken sonatas, including a reconstruction by Christa Landon.

Does Mindy like to dance? She seems to be dancing as she plays. Someone should write a ballet to the music of this Schubert g minor sonatina. I wonder if uni323 might tell us about the beautiful dress or gown Mindy is wearing. She is wonderful

Response to "IfYourMomWereATaco" more than 33,400 listeners have hear this Marian Anderson performance of "Standchen" but only about 6200 have heard her rendition of "Gretchen am Spinnrade" which they would enjoy - she is accompanied by Franz Rupp who helped her with German pronunciation

Wonderful singing, and very carefully put-together video and visual materials. Michael Haydn superb as always. Too bad more people haven't seen this.

Why do bassos have to be villains all the time? It's unfair!

Don Chun - your violin playing is excellent - you might experiment with alterate phrasings here, though the present is very good.

I wish singer and pianist were identified - both very fine. My cousins the Geetters studied at Hartt School many years ago - interesting to hear of the school again -

This is the best of five performances currently on You Tube - the balance of instruments is outstanding, the tempo, expression and recorded sound.

wonderful performance by Sofia Gvirts the mezzo-soprano - I guess this must be a recent posting, as not many people have listerned to it yet.

There are many fine horn passages in Joseph Haydn's symphonies #31, #39, #60, #73, #6, #7, #8 + others and also many of his masses, including Mass in Time of War, Harmoniemesse - arrange these for your students and passages from Sibelius Symphonies and Lemminkainen Suite op. 22. Michael Haydn also.
