Magda Angelicus. Maria Callas. Commemoration Service
This unique film captures Magda Olivero at the AGE OF 92 YEARS singing the Panis Angelicus at a Church Service to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the death of the soprano Maria Callas. Accompanied by a tenor and the Church organ in 2002. This is truly amazingthe Glory of the Human Voice Magda Olivero s voice is pure and projected cleanly and powerfully. Olivero s delivery of the piece is breathtaking at the age of 92. Breathtaking at any age Brings a lump to the throat and a tear to the eye. I BELIEVE THIS IS A MEMORABLE PIECE OF MUSICAL HISTORY and we are most fortunate to have it preserved on film. The Church is the Church of St. Fidelis of Como in the centre of Milan, near La Scala Opera House. Panis Angelicus composed by César Franck. Magda Olivero, world famous operatic soprano. 19102014.
