  • Hello everyone! This took much longer than I anticipated, but I am proud to present my restored release of the legendary Callas Aida from Mexico City, 1951.
    Physical CDs are available on eBay. Save me as a seller as i will have more releases in future:
    www.ebay.com.au/itm/265229690259
    I also now can provide FLAC downloads, via sellfy:
    callasfanrecords.sellfy.store/
    This video compares my work to a major 2017 "remastered" release, which shall remain nameless, but is probably the most widely available release of this performance. And it's just not that good.
    As the video shows, i have removed/minimised audience noise, prompters and hum, and repaired faults in the recording.
    There is still a spot of high end distortion on some of the louder singing, which is also present in the other releases. To remove this would affect the tone of the voices, which I wanted to avoid. There are also a few minor pops and clicks, but they aren't really noticeable.

    Callas lives within each of her fans so I never consider her gone. She lives with me every day as I listen to daily and was blessed to have seen her final tour and be in her presence for a few hours .

    Callasfan I’ve loved your channel for years and I’m so excited about this Aïda restoration project 😍 Could you do her Vestale that opened the ‘54 LaScala season with Corelli? It’s such an INCREDIBLE recording and the LaScala orchestra actually plays in tune and on time 🤣 But it’s awful quality and the Warner “remaster” is a LOL.

    Gli argentini e soprattutto i messicani, si sono goduti le "sorgenti" di Maria Callas, la voce-tuono dei primissimi anni. Pubblico da veri intenditori, il primo ad aver capito quel fenomeno vocale e a decretarne il successo. Grazie a loro, abbiamo registrazioni memorabili, perle preziose di Maria in vari ruoli, da Norma a Traviata, da I Puritani a Tosca fino alla strepitosa Aida, con quel MI bemolle sovracuto nel finale del II atto che resterà per sempre scolpito in cielo. 🙏

      @@CallasfanRecordings do you know how many Callas performances BJR put out? I have all of them except for maybe 2 a norma and a tosca.
