This is a HUGE thank you present for everyone that has supported my channel! Many people consider this to be one of the quintessential Verdi aria's with a very tricky vocal line.
This contest represents a first, I have included selections that I normally would have omitted. I am interested in seeing how this works out. Once again a score of 1-5 for singing/characterization:

  • Still the best that I have heard from any other soprano, young or old. A perfect 10/10

  • Everytime I hear her sing, it is as if I discover her all over again. She is my #1! Verdi was written for her. Brava! 10+ Also, one of her "mannerisms" I LOVE is the way she throws that head around lol. Brava again!!!

  • Perfect! Today,most soprano should kill to sing like Price at the age of 55!

  • Perfection and perfect form!

  • @fiercejarret I agree and breath taking. Truly the best and I wish her well!!

  • I wish had listened to Caballe before listening to Price because you can hear everything that's wrong with Caballe's version from the start. Price's pitch rides so high that Caballe sounded flat to me until she sings her fake high notes. :-)

  • Breath taking beauty!!

  • Divine

  • Contest??? There is no contest!! Leontyne sings this aria and Verdi Period better than ANYONE!!

  • I love this women!!!Meravigliosa!!!

  • The definitive!!!  5/5.
