Her career was over when her husband met with James Levine and threatened him that he should either give Cruz-Romo parts, now just covers or release her. He grabbed Levine by the collar and that was the end of Cruz-Romo's career. That simple.
This is what great legato singing sounds like. Everything aimed towards the end of the phrase with transfixing subtlety. Up is down and down is up. Completely spell binding.

She was the greatest Tosca I ever saw at the Met!

She is one of my favorite singers of all time. In her final public performance, she sounded young and fresh still.
I learned more in a 15 minute lesson with her than months with others. She is amazing!

She gave a number of memorable Met performances in the 70's and 80's. She never disappointed.
