Foropera: does the whole recording exist? and when was it recorded? Pendatchanska's Semiramide. Please.

I have the recording Ermione with Gasdia, but she is rather disappointing; I also have Caballe's, but she had obviously past her prime then.

Pendatchanska's Ermione has much more passion, fire and vocalflair than Gasdia's. Her trills, runs, "messa di voce" is precise and wonderful- especially...

Thank you so much !! I have been looking for this for long. I have the recording Ermione with Gasdia, but she is rather disappointing; I also have Caballe's, but she had obviously past her prime then.

Very good! Clear diction, free & easy high notes, seamless legato, beautiful timber. My only reservation is his colorature which needs to be improved.

Compassed by a music world full of well-wrapped trash, I find there are so few singers whose songs could really move, sooth my soul like Loreena McKennitt has always done. She is a musical diva, a poetress,a muse from an ancient ,mystic forest. The 29 who gave her music "thump down" is either...

What a unique and special voice! Eventhough it is mono. His upper register is particularly BEAUTIFUL!

I adore Gedda so much. How I wish he had never suffered such a moment. And I almost thought he had never done this( At least I have never heard he cracked or something like that).

My absolutely favorite tenor in Donizetti's opera. He should have sung more in this repertoire. There have been and are may singers who have a good technic, but almost no one has such a rich, colored, radiant voice, a so full lower register and so stable fort-high notes.

LindoroRossini:

Do you have Gruberova's "Perchè non ho del vento...Torna o caro ogetto" from this opera in her recording "Donizetti Portraits" ? If you have, will you please upload it ,I will be very Thankful! I have searched it in vain.

Dear Panovp

will you please up-load all the arias from her "Donizetti Portraits"? Thank you very much!!!

The left ones aren't worth mentioning.

Saioa Hernandez has a rich, expressive voice, sweet pianissimi, and fine lower register, brilliant High Cs.And what I like most, her fearless attacks in "..Ve-la...Ce-la" (Even Caballe can not)which is really exciting!

There are superfluous light-voiced Rossini tenors nowadays whose pipes sound no significant diffenrence at all . We miss Mr Araiza's Full,Refulgent ,Unique voice so much....

one of the most underestimated great sopranos of all time. IMO she is the best Lucrezia along with Caballe in her very best. I adore her in many roles.

The la Scala audience can be atrociously nasty, They boo when a single High C is crack; they boo when one trill isn't excuted well;they boo even when they dislike a opera singer's nose. It is horrible!
