Maria Callas in La Traviata
[media=https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL592BB6FEF57DCCB6]
A little wish of mine that I might manage sometime is to sprinkle this divine performance skillfully with other music you wouldn't expect to go along with it, it's that kind of musical bravery that I feel I was born with, haha, but boy oh boy this is a great but standard opera, I recall Marco Bellochio used an aria in his explosive debut Fists in the Pocket, and Fassbinder used one in his Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant. Maria Callas was a muse for Werner Schroeter and Pier Paolo Pasolini, starring in the latter's Medea too!!
