@BGSourgas - Hopf received some negative criticisms, but for his roles in other operas. HERE, he sounds just about right, although there's a slight wobble to the voice. His intensity, intertwined-with Ms. Nilsson ... is very-remarkable. ... Good luck to you and family, in flooding ... and there's another Nilsson version, with Jon Vickers, available from amazon. :)
MANY thanks for showing an example of Ms. Nilsson, from her EARLY years ... and Hans Hopf isn't bad, at all, either! ... In fact, this is a VERY-memorable, worthwhile performance of an aria that's been recorded/performed ... many times over.
Hopf no demuestra su genial calidad, pero Nilsson brilla hasta deslumbrar.
¡¡¡¡Bellísimo!!!!
