I HEARED THIS GORGEOUS ARIA IN LIKE 1984 AND I NEVER FORGOT IT ALL THESE YEARS! ALL THESE YEARS!!!!!! AND HERE IT IS THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART
When Callas redorded this aria, she had become a deeply sad person, fighting to find reasons to live. Of course, her voice... was not at all what it used to be... it was in pieces, but still the most truthful and touching voice ever.
I have listened to so many other singers sing this in their pristine prime, with perfect voices, and none sings it as hauntingly or beautifully as this. What an imaginative musical genius we had in Callas.
@baritonebynight John Ardoin in his cover notes for this album( released as a vinyl record) says that Callas resumed study with Hildago and developed a true ppp and that her voice, was a lot steadier, but still could not take much pressure above the staff. Yes.. thats what he said, and he was one of her closest friends, so I believe that it happened.
Ha riesumato quest'opera e la sua più nota aria... eccouno dei vari perché la Callas é lo spartiacque della lirica!

This is a perfect piece to show how singing could be touching in a deep sense even without a perfect voice.
Bravo, Callas!

These were recorded after Callas spent some number of months working with her teacher, again, and it shows! This is quite nice.

i wonder what makes you dislike the aria? is it the singing, the composition, the story ?
and I could hardly call a "CALLAS-sung-aria" a soundtrack !!!
