Radio 3 Requests

To mark the beginning of the Saturday night Opera on 3 season from New York, Chi-chi Nwanoku presents a collection of scenes and arias requested by Radio 3 listeners. Her selection includes some great Met performers of the past and present, and an unlikely collaboration between Pavarotti and Sheryl Crow. Plus guest requester Paolo Gavanelli pays tribute to a fellow Italian baritone who trod the boards at the Met.
