How wonderful to hear Ottilie Metzger , the very great and serious contralto, in this light aria which shows off the brightness and flexibility of her high notes. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Hello. For starters id like to extend a thanks to you for your uploads, they've brought me much joy in the past years I am working on a project to create an archive for a lot of the old operas, I have a lot of digital storage space and I'm working on setting up a website so that recordings will not be lost and are accessible to everyone. It seems as though preservation of the art needs a helping hand. I was curious if you'd be willing to lend me any recordings for the project. either way, cheers, and thanks again for all the music so sparsely found in other places.
