I wish the sound back then on TV shows was better because the singing and their voices here are sensational, today it cannot compare and Ed Sullivan gave us so many great singers on his show. --Tebaldi and Tucker , they where two of the true greatest in the world of opera! RIP.

This is a good performance. But listen to 1943 recording with Lauri Volpi&Bechi or Corelli&Bastianini, 1958 recording. And you will hear the difference.

I saw Tucker about a year before his death singing La Juive in New Orleans. A friend in the chorus told me that before the big aria, he turned his back to the audience and popped a pill. My friend thought it was nitroglycerin. So his fatal heart attack was not a surprise. In fact, Tucker said he wanted to die on stage, but he missed it but two hours.

Yes, he was taking that for his heart Condition, that was very serious by then, and so he nearly died on stage, as you say by only a couple of hours.

That´s how opera should sound! Far away from any vocal or technical issues and together with an incredible powerful conductor they make music and drama alive.
