OMG

[@nietzschebietzsche2642]

Excellent! For so long I have rummaged through RUclips to find this performance! How many excerpts from it do you possess?

[@vicmanu]

I actually have the whole performance, but, as a rule, I don't upload neither complete recordings nor lives from the Metropolitan Opera (with the eventual exception of Mapleson cylinders) as I've had copyright-related problems when doing such in the past (and more than once). I've posted two excerpts and will post a third but that is about it. I would also post Varnay's monologue, but it is already on YT.
