Oh how I wish Donizetti could hear her singing,

[zehnthaus]

She was a terrific MUSICIAN at last!

[jorgepda]

The way it should be done.

[georgerannie]

Sing it Brava. 

[numetutelare]

Callas and Callas...!!!!

[pointemeout]

absolutely lifeCHANGING.

i'm almost happy that I wasn't around when she was performing because I probably would've died, literally, at the first performance that I saw in person. this is too much and it's a 50 year old recording. the woman was simply TOO much

[iskenderuna]

My gosh the woman has breath control! I doubt whether any soprano today could manage to sing the cabaletta at that incredibly slow speed. Callas sails through with all the emotional and vocal range in addition. A truly magnificent piece of art. Callas at her very best.
