Renata Scotto RIP, fifth tribute

TRITTICO, three great operas,  1981   Renata as Georgetta with Cornell MacNeil as Michele in TABARRO.
 
The barge workers- Vasile Moldoveanu as Luigi, lover boy, Charlie Anthony as Tinca,  Italo Tajo as Talpa and Renata.

This s not a happy story.


Second opera- SUOR ANGELICA. Another tragedy.





GIANNI SCHICHI, the only comedy. Ray Gibbs is Rinuccio, the boyfriend. Renata is Lauretta.
Gianni Schichi is Frank Guarerra.   Betsy Nordon as Nella is in background with Charlie Anthony.

This is the biggest surprise.  Recital Carnegie Hall  Jan. 29, 1967.  John Wustman was the accompanist.  I was doing weird pictures even in 1967.


Tomorrow's post will be in color.
