I love this concert. 4 stars of the Metropolitan Opera brave a rainstorm to perform in the living room of Mr. And Mrs. Lynde Selden, Greenwich, Connecticut, raising funds for the Goodspeed Opera House in East Haddam, Connecticut.

It's so special for me to hear these voices: Barry Morell was the Duke in my first-ever live opera performance at the Cincinnati Zoo in 1962 (I was 14 years old)...I also saw Licia's 100th Violetta there, and her final Met BUTTERFLY...and of course Mac was a huge presence in my first years of opera-going.

I had it once. I might still but it’s not where it should be. I’ll look for it. I THINK it’s complete but it’s been so long since I listened to it. Now that I think about it I think its complete. I’ll try to find it but it will take awhile. I truly truly hope I haven’t lost it. Some things got lost in a move. Thanks for reminding me about it!
