It' s her Mother.

that voice is one that haunts....absolutely marvelous!

How can one listen to this and not be touched? It's undoubtedly sublime. The best version of the aria that I've heard so far. The more I listen to Maria Callas, the more I realize that this, and only this, was the purpose of her existence, no other singer has been this successful in conveying the character's emotions through musical notes. Brava!!!

Ascoltate la Olivero in quest'aria e meditate.

[claudiogiombi]

Non è un aria a lei confacente, sul finale la voce è molto oscillante eppure è registrata nel suo periodo migliore. Il tempo è troppo lento

The only thing I ask of this aria is that the singer takes the words seriously. Callas and Ponselle are the only one's i've heard who really take this lament for what it is

[valeriathire]

I hear many sopranos today to try to have the emotion that I have to listen to Callas. But I can not find. Never will be.

BRAVA!!!

An angel with a broken wing

[papaki88]

the best rendition of this aria. only maria could sing this way, only her. the anguish brings tears to my eyes. i hope she has earned her place among the angels in heavens for the feelings she creates singing with such passion. Blessed be her soul. :)

Even with the little wobble at the end, and even though it's insanely slow, NO ONE can tell me this woman wasn't the premiere artist of her generation. Viva La Divina!

Those 5 dislike votes are whack. Why listen to opera if you cannot hear?
