Nothing special here in the third YouTube clip from Decca in advance of the new Norma recording. Just a minute in length, with Cecilia giggling, Sumi Jo clowning and John Osborn smiling broadly during the recording sessions.

The clip announces at one point, “Tempos, keys and cut sections are re-established following Bellini’s own sources.” It will certainly have lots of critics digging deep into their insults dictionary, though this blogger can’t wait!
