This cruise was a scandal: At the height of her worldwide fame, her love of Aristotle Onassis became more important to the celebrated diva Maria Callas than the music and her career. Until she accepted his invitation to a three-week cruise on his yacht »Christina« in 1959, she and her manager and husband Giovanni Battista Meneghini had been a successful team who had left the opera world breathless for ten years. But those weeks saw the beginning of a fateful love affair between Maria Callas and the Greek shipping magnate. 'The Cruise '59' tells the story of this love cruise in more than two hundred photos, some of them unpublished up to now. Private moments of Maria Callas are combined with the unique flair of the 1950s and impressions of the European jet set. The trip which was to be the essential turning point in the life of Maria Callas, takes us from their first encounter in Venice, the beginning of the cruise in Monaco via Capri, Ischia and the Greek Isles to Istanbul. Ricci Tajani works as a freelance author and designer in Frankfurt on the Main and is among the large number of Callas lovers throughout the world. She studied in Hamburg and Rome and for many years lived in Italy which she rediscovered with the eyes of a photographer of the 'golden age'. Since her youth, she has been greatly attached to Greece. www.thecruise59.com
An absolute must for all Callas fans.With numerous previously unpublished photos.Including new biographical details.
