How old was she in this recording? It's so amazing, but SO different from her early years.

[raigekimaru]

she sounds like she could turn around and sing contralto if she wanted to

[Hamptarts]

She is a brilliant dramatic coloratura. That is how they sound at their top?know your fach! Some li

I did not understand the success of such a voice ..... she is metallic, with a noisy vibrato ... and also the high notes bother a lot ....

[nooneelsewillbe]

@bettiniroma and when are you posting your own version with your wonderful voice? :)

[neochmia]

Well if her coloratura technique is great, let's not talk about his...

[33blueberries]

Flaming (if a little shrill) top. Love the coloratura technique, but the vibrato becomes a bit intrusive in the upper end of the voice, and the bottom is a little bit too plummy for longevity in this repertoire. Thoroughly enjoyable, one of the best three soprano versions I've ever heard. A little glottal in La forza primiera.

[HLEleanor]

I just love her and I think her rendering is flawless...first to last! Thank you for posting!

[MrLupo23]

thank you very much for adding.

I really like her, but here i don't like the beginning of the aria: too dramatic, it doesn't seems to be a rossini piece.

But the end si fabolous!
