10 JUL 2026 - Back up to full speed! Let's be honest: for the last few months, TorrentFunk was painfully slow. Pages crawled, searches dragged, and just loading the site tested everyone's patience. We hunted the problem down to our network and rebuilt it from the ground up — smarter caching, a much bigger and faster connection, and a lot of fine-tuning under the hood. The difference is night and day: the site now loads in a fraction of a second. No more waiting around. Thanks for sticking with us through the slow spell. Now go discover your funk!
24 July 2011 marks what would have been the 90th birthday of Giuseppe di Stefano (died March 3, 2008).
Di Stefano's long career began with his operatic debut in 1946 at Reggio Emilia when he sang Des Grieux in Massenet's Manon; his last operatic role was as the Emperor in Turandot in July 1992.
Di Stefano is best remembered for his musical partnership with Maria Callas and many recordings; it was Di Stefano who partnered Callas on her last concert tour in 1973/74.
This set brings together Di Stefano's three recital records and L'elisir d'amore recorded for Decca between 1955-64; his other recordings for Decca include Tosca [with Leontyne Price / Karajan], La Gioconda [Milanov] and La forza del destino - originally released on RCA
