La Divina
========================
"Maria Callas: Dallas concert rehearsal from November 20, 1957. It is rare for a rehearsal session of a major star like Callas to be recorded and issued. (This does appear to be issued after her death.) I have to agree with the jacket notes that "this recording is both a unique and fascinating document" of this great performer. Side A: Selections from La Traviata (Verdi) and I Puritani (Bellini). Side B: Selections from Anna Bolena (Donizetti). Side C: Selections from Macbeth (Verdi) and Die Entfuhrung Aus Dem Serail (Mozart). Transfer and restoration from the Historical Recording Enterprises LP HRE 2322." Transfer by Bob Varney.
