Toscanini: The Television Concerts, Vol. 5: Verdi: Aida
The historic Toscanini television concerts with the NBC Symphony Orchestra. This concert, broadcast in two parts, on 26 March and 2 April 1949, from NBC Studio 8H, features the opera "Aida" by Giuseppe Verdi. (Both broadcasts were released as "Vol. 3" in the DVD series.)
From the archive
Just a video I quickly put together of some clips of 1949 American television. A total of 9 clips in the video (the first clip is the longest). Some of the clips contained are from my own uploads, some are from other people's uploads. There's too much digital compression, so probably much better to download rather than stream this video. It is not a very good compilation, I admit.
