La primadonna assoluta

The absolute first lady of opera: Maria Callas.  How fortunate the world is to be able to click an arrow and conjure up the diva. In the vintage footage we hear Callas sing, as the character of Lauretta, the ever popular aria from Puccini’s Gianni Schicchi.  Enjoy!

Yeah, here’s why!
