Robert Weede Sings "Eri Tu," From Un Ballo In Maschera

Robert Weede, (1903-1972) American baritone, made his debut at the Metropolitan Opera in 1937 as Tonio in I Pagliacci. He went on to sing other big Italian roles there, including Amonasro, Baron Scarpia, and Rigoletto. He was equally well known for his Broadway work, especially Frank Loesser's "Most Happy Fella." I saw him in this show in 1957, and can still recall, even after more than half a century, the dark intensity of his voice, especially in the upper register. He was a superb singer.
