It's been a very long time since I last listened to Vanni-Marcoux. Thank you, George, for re-acquainting me with this great, great singer!

This is a very moving--and understated-- rendition of the death of D. Quixote. Very, very nice indeed! It is sort of the opposite extreme of what Chaliapin did. Thank you so much for posting!
