Since most of you have heard the “Sleepwalking Scene,” I have chosen the Lady’s first Act aria. This should be enough. The shame is that the rest of the cast, chorus, orchestra, and conductor do honor to Verdi’s music.

That this performance of Verdi’s Lady Macbeth was recorded and preserved for posterity is beyond the pale.
