Sean says:

Tonight's Tiki Lounge is fantastic and At the Opera will feature a 1963 studio recording of Veri's Il Trovatore staring Ettore Bastianini, Antonietta Stella, Fiorenza Cossotto and Carlo Bergonzi!

Tiki Lounge at 5pm and At the Opera at 7pm.

It's the operatic foil in A Night at the Opera
With Impressario Otis B. Driftwood (Groucho Marx) and crew.

So who's perfect?

True to its title, the film includes adaptations of some real opera scenes from I Pagliacci and Il Trovatore, featuring the Miserere duet sung by Kitty Carlisle and Allan Jones. The opera setting also allowed MGM to add big production song numbers (which were one of this studio's specialties), such as the song "Alone", with the departure of the steamship, and the song "Cosi Cosa" with the Italian buffet and dancing.

Carlisle and Jones were both trained in operatic singing and provided their own singing voices in the film. Walter Woolf King was a trained baritone, but he portrayed a tenor in the film. His singing was dubbed by Metropolitan Opera tenor Tandy MacKenzie.

My Dad always told me: "Play piano and you'll be popular!"


But I digress.
I get good karma for driving clicks to opera!!
