Utter nonsense. Plus, Maria Callas never sobbed in Bel Canto, nor was her legato line flawed. As for sobs, have you heard Gruberova sob, moan and sigh through Devereux, Norma and Anna Bolena? Honestly, Callas, not a Bel Canto singer? So all the experts, singers, conductors and musicians were wrong? Gimme a break! You may not like her in Bel Canto, but that doesn't alter her greatness one bit.

Mieux de ce que je viens d'entendre auparavant par d'autres interprète.

I read a review a coupple of days ago which says: "when Wagner is discussed, Bohm becomes that guy who always conducts too fast, and when Mozart comes up, he's the guy who is always too slow". The person who worte this could not be more right. Particularly I love Böhm conducting for Mozart and Wagner.

I think Edita is doing a great job. It's the ridiculous tempo that is to blame her.
Her voice is so well supported i.e. so much on the breath -sul fiato- that it is a joy for me to hear this version.
I have heard so many live performances with the best interpreters of today and I still have Gruberova's s sound in my ears whenever I look at the music score.

She lost her voice because a) she sang dramattic roles too early and b) because she always gave 500% rather than 100%. She was a candle burning from both sides. Marketing? Are critics, musicians, colleagues as well as modern singers, conductors etc. were/are in marketing? Callas became a legend as a musician. Face it, you may not like her (Which is your right) but her artistry is undeniable. Just as I may dislike Gruberova in certain roles, but I cannot deny Gruberova's artistry either.
