It wasn't this one, in the German video, below -- it was of an earlier vintage, and on vinyl. But I almost leapt off the couch. And as said below -- her radiance shown through -- like a lantern on a fog shrouded night -- in every photo ever published of her, and that glorious era -- what came to be known as. . . Camelot:
. . .This Saturday sees the centenary of Greek-American soprano Maria Callas, born in New York on 2 December 1923. . . .
The singer made her professional debut in early 1941 and rose to stratospheric levels of fame in the 1950s and 60s. She was famed for her Verdi, Puccini and bel canto singing, captivating stage presence with a personal life never too far from the celebrity spotlight. . . .
The soprano frequently travelled between London, Milan and New York, living a life of glamour befitting the age and her celebrity status. . . .
Utterly flawless. . . .
नमस्ते
