I hadn't heard this in 20 years. Absolutely amazing! And I've never heard anyone else even try to sing this aria

I just found my recording...it's in such good shape - and the libretto is so informative and interesting.

this is so beautiful! NO ONE can do this opera like her. its near perfection. the tone, musicality, the range.. etc.. It sounds easy, too.

I haven't heard this in ages! La Sills still thrills! Brava!

Those runs that she does is a pure master class on coloratura, IMO. Great, great stuff!

You're most welcome! You should definitely buy the entire studio recording. Shirley Verrett is stunning!

I was listening to Sills' Roberto Devereux yesterday and was so deeply moved as she sang "L'amor suo mi fè beata" and saddened that she is no longer with us. But I just realized that in a way she will always be with us through these wonderful recordings. I'll have to add this one to my collection. Thank you for the preview, castodivo.
