Mario Lanza- RARE 1952 Musica proibita (Gastaldon)

Mario Lanza (1921-1959) “Musica proibita“(Gastaldon). Recorded June 20, 1952, for The Mario Lanza Show, with studio orchestra conducted by Constantine Callinicos. Here is the Youtube debut of Lanza’s much sought after Coca-Cola Show ’Musica proibita’! His only other recording was on the 1959 RCA “Caruso Favorites“ album- not a favorite of mine. Some are fond of the latter, but to my ears it finds him thick and sluggish of voice, with somewhat labored singing.
