Enrico Caruso’s most unusual a Bass 1916

RCA Victor Red Seal have always liked this aria from La Boheme. Here Caruso sings the Aria in the original key. This aria always brings back some sad memories as well. I remember the funeral service for Jerome Hines in 2003. As I was ready to leave the church after the memorial service. Jerry’s casket was alone on the alter and there was recording playing of him singing that aria of “farewell“ I will always remember that was surreal to have him singing..
