Mr. Stomvi is an unknown quantity at this point
Thanks Manny - You are probably right. I recently ran across a collection of old 33rpm LP's with Enrico Caruso, John McCormack, Rosa Ponselle, Beniamino Gigli, Amelita Galli - Curci, Elisabeth Rerhberg, Lawrence Tibbett, Enzio Pinza, Lily Pons, and Kirsten Flagstad. A real gold mine ! Have been getting inspired all day long Somewhat depressing though. Hard act to follow
