Luigi Alva RIP- Part 1

The first time I heard Luigi Alva he was Fenton in FALSTAFF, 1964 through 1966. Delightful. This was 1966 with Mary Costa and Regina Resnick. Colzani was Falstaff.
 

The close of act II after Falstaff is dumped out the window. Lili Chookasian, Mildred Miller And Mary Costa. Luigi on the left
1972 with Jeannette Pilou as Nanetta.

1972, the forest scene.

1972 final ensemble- Luigi, Andrea Velis, Sir Geraint Evans as Falstaff,  andRichard Best
1971 L'ELISIR D'AMORE as Nemorino with Reri Grist as Adina.
First scene, the story telling in the village
With Dr. Dulcamara , Corena, trying to buy the elixir.
with Adina again
Evening, the ladies chorus an jug of elixir
To be continued. Tidbits of fun.
