Just when I think I have almost everything imaginable, I locate a series of trading cards featuring classical singers and musicians, released in 1992. Josep is...

Ooh, lucky you -- Karlene is right, you do need to scan it & upload it. Carefully, too, so it stays nice, then put it, not in a frame, but in something called...
Well, the cards are not just of opera singers, but of other classical musicians as well. "All Stars" include Perlman, Bernstein, Levine, Domingo and Kathleen...
... Well Alice, once I have it in this top-loader thingie, then what do I do with it? That is the trouble with such things, isn't it? Were I a generous woman,...
I forgot to say, I bought the entire set, not just Josep's card. Some of the others are Abbado, Sinopoli, Cheryl Studer, Mirella Freni, and the entire Vienna...

Hello all, I found this on www.rubylane.com (sort of ebay). Posted in Early Years. Enjoy. Maria Jose Carreras, autograph on color photo, private shot by a fan....
Thanks, Maria, for sharing! The photo of Josep in red is quite a hoot! Does anyone know what opera it's from? There's something about the red cape that makes...
Oh, I've seen that picture before...... not one of my favorites. ... ____________________________________________________________________________________ The...
The necklace idea...... I don't think so. His voice is too much in my head as it is; the last thing I want is his photo hanging from my neck. The red photo.......
Isn't it incredible how deep our love for music can be? In the last weeks - or rather, months - I was so occupied with my diploma thesis that I rarely listened...
I was just wondering if anyone here has a copy of Thomas Hampson's album "The old song re-sung"? If you do, puhleese drop me a line. Thank you! Love, -Lisa :D...
... Hi Lisa, I think you mean "An Old Song Re-sung". Although the CD is out of print, it is still available from Amazon via their affiliated sellers: ...
... Hi Julia, For me it's La Traviata. If I could only see one more opera or hear one more opera recording, that would be it. Especially 'Addio del passato',...

Julia- I have to agree with you, "La Boheme" is my favorite opera (at least so far!) The music is just gorgeous. It's too bad that the Rodolfo you saw wasn't...
Try looking at these photos in black & white...they are much more complimentary! It's the yellow in the shirt that's distracting. I first saw the trading card...
... Thanks Jean, a thousand times! That is the very record, of course - rather expensive to order :D The link was great, but I was a little peeved the song...
karlene: marcello giordani was not feeling well (I believe he said so during the interview). not fair to say anything about the man. he is an artist and a...
... As Maria said, he did have a cold for that Met broadcast, but Giordani is one singer that I just can't warm to. I've listened to his recordings and heard...

He's another one who is cute, sweet & lovable -- when I watched his Boheme on TV, I needed tissues -- not to wipe away tears, but to wipe my chin ;-) ... ...
Maria - Thanks for letting me know! I've never heard him (Marcello Giordani) before so I didn't want to judge him too harshly on my first "listen". It just...
