Maria callas 1965 with co stars Tito Gobbi and Meneto Cioni Royal Opera House Covent Garden

i never really liked opera. so, i am sort of forcing myself to continue listening. i appreciate the talent and may appreciate it a bit more if it was a live show. but, in my bachelors appartment, with the smell of onions frying in the background and mixing with the dust of belly dancers, I am not convinced.
