Capturing Historic Moment in Rome
It was 1990. A historic year in classical music. Two major world events happened that summer, both in Rome. And, Outpost Worldwide head Michael Wunsch and independent producer and communications strategist David Henderson were there to capture both on digital video. It should be noted that even 18 years ago, Michael was already a leader in digital video.
Henderson’s client, Polygram Worldwide, had asked him to produce a behind-the-scenes video of the first Three Tenors concert with Luciano Pavarotti, Placido Domingo and Jose Carreras under the baton of Zubin Mehta at Rome’s ancient Baths of Caracalla. At the same time, the CEO of Polygram asked the crew to shoot a music video to debut a little-known mezzo-soprano, Cecilia Bartoli.
Ms. Bartoli is today an international superstar in the world of opera. Here is an exclusive screening of the video with Ms. Bartoli in July 1990 –

It is fantastic to see the exquisitely beautiful Cecilia enriching the streets of her home city of Rome with her youthful presence: today Cecilia is still and will always be The Best; she is just such a honey!!!! Love her to bits!!!!
