Robert Merrill (with Yehudi Menuhin & Carroll Hollister) – “Ombra mai fu” (Handel’s “Largo”)

Click for higher quality audio/video: www.youtube.com Robert Merrill sings “Ombra mai fu” from Handel’s “Serse/Xerxes” with accompaniment by violinist Yehudi Menuhin and pianist Carroll Hollister. This 1953 recording is off the RCA Victor Red Seal album “Great Combinations” which also includes recordings with Rise Stevens, Ezio Pinza, Jan Peerce, Marian Anderson, Gregor Piatigorsky, Mischa Elman, Nathan Milstein, Franz Rupp, and Gibner King. I recently saw this album sell on ebay for around $50.
