For this trip we need to put apart many things that we know now. We are travelling to a time where Maria Callas whas Meneghini Callas, she was not La Divina. She was not as famous as she came to be years later. We have no mobile telephones, meaning there is no way to learn immediately news from all other places almost at the time they are happening. This program is built with a number of sources to provide a bigger picture of what was actually happening back then.
This program, this first travel in time is: The expectation
