What a wonderful baritone and delightful colleague! I sang with Adib many times over our years together at New York City Opera, including PURITANI, CAV/PAG, TRAVIATA, THE STUDENT PRINCE and so many others. I was Marullo to his Rigoletto in Connecticut. I first sang with Adib in 1980 in DON CARLO with New Jersey State Opera. Thank you for posting this wonderful souvenir. I hope Adib is enjoying retirement.
What a phenomenal singer...His Germont in Hartford 1979 was breathtaking. There is a complete Rigoletto from NYC Opera in the mid 1980s the audio is so-so but the singing is miraculous. A very nice man to work with as well
@@MarkLCottonBaritone I have his Rigoletto from Stamford CT in 1982...recorded it myself....not bad audio considering it was 1980's technology. I also have the NYCO Rigoletto from 1984.

Bravo!
I sang with Adib in 1982 in Stamford and you were there, Joe. He was a great baritone and singer in general.
I have a copy of that performance and also have some excerpts of his Tonio in Stamford in 1983. Hope you are doing well.
@@joecivitano Would love to get in touch with you at some point if you'd like.

@StephenWall l I would love to hear that Rigoletto. I'm singing it in 2022. I'd love to use it as a learning tool.
