no doubt Callas is a great artist to listen to no matter who she's singing. be sure to check out Laura Claycomb's version here on youtube - it, too, is stunning....

the prompter is getting on my nerves.

Quando l'Astro Maggiore compare in Cielo, gli altri le fanno corona, e si tacciono ....Divina Maria :)

@xafnndapp Thank you.

@angelovocci no way, this IS the actual performance and she lowered it in D#.

@andreea94a transposed 1/2 tone lower.

Awsome... quaint vinyl recording and overheard prompter... how real and exquisite it is, despite of it and because of it, too...

@vocalissimo1 I acltually think Verdi would have liked this ending aswell. Gilda has just discovered her first ''love'' and she is like in a bubble of joy. The trills indicate emotion and the last high note the joy and love she has for the Duke. About the prompter, the production of this Rigoletto in 1952 was a last minute thing. This was Callas' first time singing the role and had to learn it in less than 10 days. I hope this helps! Also in Mexico the radio mike is just above the prompter's box
