In this hour-long special from WRTI commemorating Callas’s 100th birth anniversary, host Mike Bolton explores how Callas’s incomparable voice and drama-filled life shaped her indelible legacy. Callas’s story is told through some of her most iconic performances and through interviews with leading voices in opera today, including soprano Sondra Radvanovsky, tenor Lawrence Brownlee, artistic administrator Evans Mirageas, singer and Youtube personality Elizabeth Zharoff, and pianist and repetiteur Craig Rutenberg.</p> </div> <div> <h3>Comments</h3> <p>The producer has turned off comments on this piece.</p> </div> <div> <div id="timing-and-cues"> <h3>Timing and Cues</h3> <div> <p>Segment 1 (0:00-22:00) <br />In: "Do you remember seeing Michael Jackson..." <br />Out: "I'm Mike Bolton from WRTI, 90.1 FM in Philadelphia and this is La Divina: Maria Callas at 100."</p> <p>Break 1 (22:00-23:00) <br />Music: Puccini: Madama Butterfly: Humming Chorus (Herbert von Karajan/Orchestra and Chorus of La Scala)</p> <p>Segment 2 (23:00-43:00) <br />In: "You're listening to La Divina: Maria Callas at 100." <br />Out: "This is La Divina: Maria Callas at 100."</p> <p>Segment 3 (43:00-58:00) <br />In: Music: Donizetti: Al dolce guidami castel natio (Maria Callas/Nicola Rescigno/Philharmonia Orchestra) <br />Out: "Thanks for listening."</p> </div> </div> </div> <h3>Musical Works</h3> <table class="musical-works-listing"> <thead> <th>Title</th> <th>Artist</th> <th>Album</th> <th>Label</th> <th>Year</th> <th style="text-align:center;">Length</th>  </thead> <tr class="odd"> <td class="title">Adriana Lecouvreur: Io son l鈥檜mile ancella</td> <td class="artist">Francesco Cilea; Maria Callas, soprano; Tullio Serafin, conductor; Philharmonia Orchestra</td> <td class="album">Maria Callas - The Complete Studio Recordings 1949-1969.</td> <td class="label">Warner Classics</td> <td class="year">2014</td> <td class="running-time">03:46</td>  </tr> <tr class="even"> <td class="title">Tosca: Ors霉, Tosca, parlate</td> <td class="artist">Giacomo Puccini; Maria Callas, soprano; Giuseppe di Stefano, tenor; Tito Gobbi, baritone; Victor de Sabata, conductor; Orchestra of La Scala</td> <td class="album">Maria Callas - The Complete Studio Recordings 1949-1969.</td> <td class="label">Warner Classics</td> <td class="year">2014</td> <td class="running-time">03:26</td>  </tr> <tr class="odd"> <td class="title">Macbeth: Vieni!
