Hilde Gueden "Musetta's Waltz" on The Ed Sullivan Show

[@TomElvisSmith]

Beautiful; thank you! I was just thinking today that it's been awhile since we have had any opera singer videos. Some may recognize the melody of this song as it formed the basis of "Don't You Know", a big hit for Della Reese in 1958 or 1959. Wonderful video!

One of the best sopranos of the last century...

L.A. Times music critic Martin Bernheimer commenting upon her death in 1988: “Those were lavish times. She was a beautiful woman and a sensitive actress. Although her pure and silvery soprano soared with special poignancy in the music of Mozart and Richard Strauss, she also was a memorable exponent of such Verdi heroines as Gilda in ‘Rigoletto’ (which she sang in the historic Met production designed by Eugene Berman) and Violetta in ‘La Traviata.’ ”

My goodness quite the voice. Sounds like opera?

[@Kw1161]

I was mentioning the "Moon-Struck" on your Vicki Carr video and now you play one of the songs of the Opera Cher and Nicolas Cage went to see in the movie. Bravo..

She looks like Bette Midler. 🙂

I don’t think so…she was a very handsome woman
