Una bellissima donna sensibile e un uomo 'freddo'...

la vita.

They were so sober at that time. She even does not blink and remain with her hands crossed and he stay still and quiet. And it's not so long ago. Imagine the ancient egyptians, and I think that their habits would be for us as of martians or venusians.

Großartiges Zeitdokument auf diesem Wege der Allgemeinheit zugänglich gemacht! Danke !!

What a transcendant bit of performance history. I'm proud Yehudi Menuhin was from San Francisco!

I think Eula Beal is one of the most beautiful contraltos of all time, it's a true shame she didn't continue her career. She's one singer i aspire to be like, so inspiring! Though I have no idea what range I am, i enjoy singing her style, it's just too beautiful!

@francesca7564 Je serais tombé follement amoureux de cette femme à la première rencontre. Chanter Samson aux côtés d'une Dalida pareille : Le rêve de tout ténor!!!

Mit Sir Yehudi Menuhin ist  das ohnehin schon sehr schöne Stück,noch schöner....

What a beautiful looking man was Menuhin! What a combination! Bach and Menuhin! Of course the contralto is equally wonderful!
