RARE! Tebaldi & Corelli in concert: Hong Kong, Nov 27, 1973
Re-sharing this rarity: a concert that happened exactly 50 years ago. The recording was made and originally published by the organizer, professor Lo King-man, who generously presented it on Hong Kong’s Radio 4 in February 2022, in celebration of Tebaldi’s centenary. The concert was not originally scheduled as part of Tebaldi and Corelli’s 1973 tour of the Far East, but this extra stop was added at the persuasion of Lo-King Man, who negotiated with the stars a slightly shorter than usual program at a reduced fee.
