Hello, I'm Kirstie Young, and this is a podcast from the Desert Island Discs archive.

For Wright's reasons, we've had to shorten the music.

The program was originally broadcast in 1979, and the presenter was Roy Plumlee. On our desert island this week is the great operatic baritone, Dieto Gobby.

Commendatory, the first question, did you find it very difficult to choose just eight records to take with you?

No, no, but certainly there are only eight and there are maybe another couple of hundred that I would like to take with me because I think and I believe in a desert

island I will really find the time to play the records.

What I don't do in my life. Even some of my own records I have never played.

What's the first one you've chosen? The first one is the Muntanaoara, is a song of the Alpine or the soldier of my country

in the north of Italy in Basano de Grappa and with permission, I will take a little bit of my voice

with me too.

And so that I could be sang by me. super lee montaneer, monsieur,
