Teatro alla Scala, La favorita, 1961/62

 

The Favorita was mind-blowing with Barbieri, Gianni Raimondi, Bastianini and Ghiaurov. I remember Ghiaurov had a pedal note at the end of act 1 I think it was with the full orchestra, chorus and other soloists going full blast with Ghiaurov's voice coming through all.
