Adoration of the Magi was one of three paintings that inspired Ottorino Respighi\'s Botticelli Triptych. Some experts contend that this painting has a self-portrait in it. The man furthest on the right, looking over his shoulder right at you, is Botticelli himself.', STATUS, 'Link to http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9d/Sandro_Botticelli_085.jpg');" !onmouseout="return nd();" class="copy12">Adoration of the Magi
Rossini late in life
After a lot of searching, I stumbled onto Brahms speaking and playing his Hungarian Dance No. 1, even though I could barely decipher it through the century-old technology and the degeneration of the recording over time.
I\'ve found other voices and performances as time has gone on but I\'ve never found them all together -- until now. Not only does YouTube have the recordings I\'ve already mentioned, it also has many more century-old recordings. They include Isaac Albéniz, Sir Arthur Sullivan speaking, Joseph Joachim, Camille Saint-Saëns and others performing. It’s fascinating stuff.
