Eileen Di Tullio sings "Dearest Mama"

Soprano Eileen Di Tullio sings The Letter Scene - "Dearest Mama I am writing.." from The Moore-Latouche American Opera, The Ballad of Baby Doe. The recording was taped at her Tully Hall recital in New York City in 1973. PLEASE NOTE a correction of the lyrics - should be "a man someday" - not "a man so kind" - thanks to sydtastic31091.

I was encouraged to hear more of her so i pulled out the cd i have and listened to it. remarkable artist, and the cd brought back many emotional memories. of her, of aldo, and of the person who gave me the cd. it was given to me by my great friend and supporter of my career ezio flagello who was on of aldos students. i talked to ezio several times a week for years after he retired and i miss him..... there's a pretty good and irreplaceable operatic trio. ez, eileen and aldo...

Just an edit on the lyrics. It's a man someday, not so kind.
