The sorceress goes psycho in an orgy of bloodlust and vengeance. The great Hungarian diva Sylvia Sass brings the drama to life in this rare concert footage from Boston, 1992.

  • where are the chills that should come from phrases like "Risparmia lor piu' lunghi pianti ancor"?...

    Bad imitation with a potato in her mouth

  • I am nuts about Callas, love Medea, but Sass does a very good job.. She has a very dramatic voice and instincts for this stuff.

  • Agreed. Let Sass be Sass.

  • Medea è un'opera bellissima per me,la forza dellaprotagonista è qualcosa di eccezionale,sono un maschio ma non nascondo che mi piacerebbe molto di più cantare alcuni ruoli femminili per la loro profondità.La sass imita un pò la callas,ne fu definita anche erede se non sbaglio,ma non ha la stoffa della grandissima divina,pronuncia artefatta e un pò inerte,poi sempre le manine a mortesecca,comunque brava

  • I was in the audience for this performance. I was very impressed by Sass, from the moment she came onto the stage with her red veil covering her face menacingly. I thought then and still do think that she sang well and made a stunning Medea. To everyone who, like me, worships Callas: if we compare everyone who sings this part reflexibly and negatively to her, the opera will never be performed. Let Sass be Sass, not Callas. The work is what counts, ultimately.

  • Powerful, expressive and beautiful voice : Sass is a great singer, obviously...

  • With that attitude it would not be anyone else either.

  • I saw her in Gluck's Alceste in the early 80's. She was a magnificent singing actress.
