Beverly Sills - President Carter's inauguration - 1977

Cuanto gozaba ella cantando era una mujer feliz, que pena que se nos fue tan pronto, siempre recordaremos sus hermosas arias y melodias

She always looks like she's having so much fun!

The Fastest Voice Alive, they called her, and not without reason. Thanks so much Coloraturafan! I watched this with my family the night it happened in 1977 and haven't seen it since. Perhaps this is the bubbliest of all of Bubbles' signature arias, and she could pull it off right up to the end of her career, her artistry and ebullience carrying her so well that if a high note was a little wobbly when in the past it was dazzlingly secure it just didn't seem to matter. God bless Beverly Sills!

what I love most about Sills is her humour and spontaneity..she was so down to earth and she always had a smile on her face even though life had been a bit unkind to her.. it's so refreshing to watch her interviews!

coloraturafan!! I have watched this 6 times now and STILL can't stop smiling at Beloved Beverly! Thank you so much for this.wonderful upload! What a pity there isn't a star rating for the person who gives us these uploads because you would get 6! 5 wouldn't be good enough in my opinion!

Thank you for posting this. I'm a big fan of Beverly Sills, although I never saw her perform (I was born in 1980 the year of her retirement from opera). It's nice to see she was in great vocal shape in 1977 for President Carter's inauguration. She sang marvelously! I love her Rosina from Barber of Seville
