- carl@cunixf.cc.columbia.edu (Carl Hansen) solicits info concerning Callas
- videos.
-
- I'm sure people will suggest the two recitals from Hamburg, and the 1958
- Paris Gala (which I don't think is nearly as bad as a previous poster had
- indicated - that Casta Diva is really prime material, whatever its
- drawbacks).
-
- But of course, most of us will think of the famous film of Act II from
- Tosca in the Zeffirelli Covent Garden production (1964) -- which isn't available
- commercially.
-
- Thank goodness for those underground sources. You can purchase that
- Covent Garden act from this source:
-
- LIVE OPERA
- Box 3141
- Steinway Station
- Long Island City, NY 11103
-
- They also have a catalog with mouth-watering video- and audiotapes.
- Send for a catalog just to salivate!
