Toscanini -- "Beautiful Lady" ("The Pink Lady")

Speranza

Toscanini was enthusiastic about the theatre, more especially about musical comedy.

During his years at the Metropolitan (1908-1915) he saw many Broadway musicals.

His favourite was "The Pink Lady", whose waltz number ("Beautiful Lady") he admired and sometimes played on the piano when in reminiscent mood.
