Joan Sutherland - La buona figliuola: "Furia di donna irata"

[sweltame]

Thank you Dame Joan Sutherland!

What a career this woman had, thrilling so many people for so long! This just shows why she was named La Stupenda!

I believe there is an earlier version, with an interpolated high D just touched at the end.

@Hako2004 Indeed. She recorded this piece for her 1959 Baroque Arias LP and in 1963 for the Age of Bel Canto (this recording). There is a high D in the earlier version, but I prefer her interpretation in this version. Both are exceptional bits of her work.

Weird, I've never heard this one. It's different from the Art of Joan Sutherland version. What year was this?

This is 1963 ;)
