Singing at 99 left us september 8, 2014. Really VISSI D'ARTE | Magda Olivero

La mitica Magda Olivero , born 1910 - flew away september 2014

This is a very special and singular experience for opera lovers. The legendary Magda Olivero in the last years of her long life decided to follow a strange recurring dream she had during three subsequent nights and that urged her to sing one phrase from Zandonai's Francesca da Rimini "Paolo datemi pace". She was then 99 years old; that is a rare, true, sensitive and very dedicated artist. However, this is not what made Magda Olivero a legend. It is presented here as a memento of her dedication and desire to sing.
