  • She is still the best Elvira ever! I wish I could have sung Riccardo opposite her!

  • @MrAndredekock What a pity you didn't sing with her Andre, Im sure that would have been an unforgetable experience!!!You'd have been the best Riccardo!!

  • @petelovesbevsills Lol Pete! Thank you that is a very sweet thing to say even though you've never heard me sing! (A BIG smile).

  • @MrAndredekock Ah! Andre. I know that anyone who had a mediocre voice would NEVER have wished to have sung with our Beverly. See? Big smile back to you!! ( Strange to think she only sang with one South African....you'd have been number 2 !!) ;-)

  • @petelovesbevsills Yes Christo du Plessis is about 8 years older than me and was recorded on one of the 3 Queens, but I don't recall which one. What a waste of a glorious bass voice as he stopped singing and went more into the antiques trade.

  • @MrAndredekock I agree Andre! It was Maria Stuarda that he recorded with our Beverly!

  • @andreernestgretry You are quite right! It is such a pity that the American public took such a long time to finally acknowledge Beverly's spectacular talent. thank goodness we have some wonderful live recordings of her early days to enjoy! Great comment thank you.

  • Beverly sills andò incontro ad un'innegabile declino a partire dal 1974, a causa dei ruoli forse un po' pesanti per la sua voce (si pensi, ad esempio, ad Anna Bolena ed Elisabetta nel Devereux). Qualcuno sostiene anche che cantasse con i centri un po' aperti. C'è da tenere conto che la Sills divenne famosa a livello internazionale solo nel '69, molto dopo i suoi inizi. CI siamo persi forse gli anni migliori, a livello di registrazioni, come, in fondo, testimonia questo audio.

  • @strangeenchantedboy you are welcome!!

  • @leprincebeaumont Mah, veramente capisco benissimo. Il declino di cui tu parli io non lo vedo.
