Title: William McAlpine "De miei bollenti spiriti" View count: 142 Rating: 5.0 (1 ratings) Description: William McAlpine sings Alfredo's aria live from Covent Garden in January 1960. This is part of the extraordinary, unrehearsed performance in which Virginia Zeani sang Violetta as an emergency replacement for the ailing Joan Sutherland. None of the cast had ever set eyes on each other before they met on stage in the performance. Already ideally cast as a fresh and innocent sounding Alfredo, William McAlpine excelled himself that evening and proved the perfect partner for Zeani. The whole uniquely realistic performance is posted on this channel in thirteen videos.
