Ewa Podleś - Samson & Dalila

This weekend Maury reminded me that I own a recording of what I believe is Ewa Podleś's only Dalila—as a cast alternate to Marjana Lipovšek in 1991. I have to say, it's pretty glorious.

I won't bore you with words, since I'm still in the process of rediscovering the recording, but look, anytime you can catch Podleś in a flowy gown, really, it's time to pay attention.

Hark!
