Revision as of 09:04, 24 September 2008
Two of the biggest names in turn-of-the century opera sing a song from the opera by Giacomo Puccini they helped make the smash hit it has remained to this day. Everything about this is top importance to opera. The singers are the biggest starts of their day, Puccini is arguably the most popular opera composer of all time, and... well, La bohème. The only minor flaw is that Caruso seems to have been hogging the recording horn, making Melba sound a bit weaker.
Extraction of the piece from its context in the opera seems to have involved the removal of a short counterpoint phrase for Mimi (a repeat of the end of the previous song) near the beginning, otherwise, I believe this is complete.
Anyway, I'm going to bed now. I don't think there'll be any significant problems. I haven't found a score yet, but if I don't find one before it closes, I'll grab a transcription of the lyrics instead.
