Disc No: GH 2317	The role of Orfeo was Thorborg’s favorite role, one which greatly suited this celebrated contralto’s voice and temperament. She is heard in a vividly recorded, full-sounding transfer of the original transcriptions, with commentary by Milton Cross and all the curtain calls soj ustly earned by these singers. The album also offers an extensive interview with Madame Thorborg about her Met career and a bonus of certain rare discs that first introduced her remarkable voice to music lovers
