Opera Thursday

By Mitchell

For your listening (and viewing) pleasure, here's a little musical diversion for a Thursday - Maria Callas singing the famous aria "O Mio Babbino Cara" from Puccini's one-act comedy Gianni Schicci. You might not be familar with the opera, but most likely you're recognize the music from the first note.

As an aside, I once used Gianni Schicci as part of a very funny parody of gangster movies in one of my (as yet) unpublished novels, but that's a story for another day. In the meantime, enjoy.
