Adelina Patti as Amina - Ah! non credea mirarti from La Sonnambula - Video
PUBLISHED: Jun 30, 2012
DESCRIPTION: No one who listens to recordings of Adelina Patti expects to hear the singer who dazzled the crowned heads of Europe and pleased the toughest critics in the 1800s -- she was just passed her prime and the recording equipment too primitive. However, plenty of Patti's ebullient energy and personality comes through the recorded haze a century old.
