Mario Lanza - La Spagnola - The Kirov Ballet

Mario Lanza and the Kirov Ballet make this a fun video. The Nutcracker video will please children too. The perfection of Lanza's voice is united with the perfection of the Kirov Ballet of St. Petersburg. Their dancing will delight the child in all of us. Something about their dancing reminds me of marionettes, perhaps because they are so very light on their feet. May you smile and enjoy the singing and dancing as you watch this.
Special thanks go to the following video hosts, master painters, and other media:

"La Spagnola" is by Vincenzo di Chiara
La Spagnola's Lyrics
Bella spagnola che canti
tu sei piu vaga d'un fior !
sogno di luce, che incanti
come una maga d'amor.
Vieni ! vieni!
stretto al tuo seno ognor,
la spagnola da te sapra
come e dolce la volutta!
Bella che senti nel core
l'ansia dei baci fiorir.
Bella, che cerchi l'amore
come un supremo desir

Thank you, Sandra, for bringing back to life some of the more unknown recordings of Mario Lanza. Many call him, "The Greatest Tenor of the 20th Century." I agree!

Tanto a voz de Mario Lanza como o ballet são espetaculares mas não estão dançando a mesma música.
