...although I do appreciate the links (whew!). Obviously, the record that I had listened to must not have been true castrati (probably a choir of boys)? According to the history, only one "tweaked" male made it to the recording studio at the turn of the century, thank God. Anyway, it is a source of speculation to me as to whether the acceptance of the idea of the castration was due in fact more to the liberty or the insolence of those days when such great music was produced?
