The members of the orchestra stood up after Bev had finished recording this fabulous song and made kissing gestures....the highest tribute any singer could wish for! I am willing to bet that Victor Herbert was on bended knees with admiration!!!!!!!!

The story goes that when she finished this recording, the orchestra rose to their feet and applauded in the studio!

I think this most sublime and sumptuous album won a Grammy Award in 1976. It definitely stands the test of time. The arrangment and lush orchestration also reminds me of another equally sumptuous record by Hilde Gueden sings Ivor Novello's and Noel Coward's songs.
I've always loved Beverly Sill's beautiful voice. I love opera and remember her from the early 60s when I listened to my father's operas. Thank you for this lovely video.

@Palmerito yes, this is from the recording done in the late 70's. all of the victor herbert songs, including ah sweet mystery of life are there as well. when she had finished recording this song the orchestra blew her a kiss! she was past her prime at this time, but still truly wonderful!

Undoubtedly a great soprano who is right up there with the best. But there are others just as great and I am not detracting from her when I say that.

I believe that the reason Beverly, with her beautiful voice, could sing this with so much deep feeling which touches us so, is because she was in love with, and married to the love of her life for eventually, 50 years!

I believe that this was from an album in which Beverly also recorded "Ah, Sweet Mystery of Love" - my favourite version of that song ever... even better that Jeanette McDonald/ Nelson Eddy. Would you by any chance be able to post that one as well?
