this is the best cast, ever!!! ( I love when Cavadarossi says " e rido ancor'.... e rido ancor!!") i just love him and Callas's voice behind!..... wow

What is not noted is the remarkably adept camera work, considering this a live performance in the infancy of such things. Further, the performances were intended to be seen from a distance (by the seated audience) not close up: it is similarly remarkable that they work so "cruelly" exposed.

It may not have been the best performance she ever gave of Tosca...yes, it was after her voice began to lose its quality. Still, there are very few instances of a Callas performance recorded for both audio and video. This may not be how you wish to remember Maria Callas, but opera is not sound alone, and I was born after she was gone. Let me have this, that I may know her.
