This is a wonderful recording of Richard Tucker performing Nicolas Flagello's "La Bella Aurora" (which was dedicated to Richard Tucker who first performed it for his collection of Neapolitan songs).
I do not own copyrights to the music, so if you like the song, buy the album like I did from Amazon or something!
If you like this song and want to perform it or are just interested in Nicolas Flagello, here is a link to a website about the composer and a place to buy his music: http://www.flagello.com/.
Hopefully this is pretty kosher with the people of youtube and the people of the cd. I just liked the song and wanted to share it with others.
Richard Tucker's Soul of Italy is on the Sony Label.
This is a fantastic album, I believe the CD cover you show at the beginning is a combination of 2 LP's of Italian songs. His "sebben crudele" "lungi dal caro bene" and "nina" are some of his most beautiful restrained singing, completely unmannered and clean.

This beautiful song was written for Richard Tucker by Nicholas Flagello, composer, conductor, and brother of Ezio. I love this song.
