This deleted recording with the American diva Beverly Sills (AKA "Bubbles") which is highly regarded in some quarter's,includes bit's that were cut from earlier recording's (and I'm no expert,so I'll leave it that!) It is also notable for the,wonderfully,"eerie sounding" inclusion of Donizetti's original choice of instrumentation,for the "Mad Scene" (see cover photo! That's me in my dressing gown!!

) a glass harmonica!
Incidentally,when I was in school I asked my teacher if I could learn to play the glass harmonica,but she told me that there were too many kids learning to play it,and she didn't want a classroom full of them!
