Ever since I heard Sena Jurinac sing, I wondered how she would pass the PorgiAmor-test. Would she be as good as Dame Kiri Te Kanawa.... or Fleming... or Rita Streich....or so many others.... Now , I know... Mozart's view of 18th woman in Figaro balances his other accounts in the Don and Cosi Fan Tutti, which makes Porgi rather interesting...
She is one of the best in this fach. But she excelled in other roles too. Her repertoire was incredible. Listen to her Strauss.

Thank you so much for posting this. Jurinac is one of my favorite sopranos and my favorite Countess.

She has been fresh, unique and very natural with wonderful legato and elegance ...GREAT.
Indeed Dame Kiri te Kanawa has been wonderful too but Jurinac has been absolutely great too!
And I like and adore the great soprano Margaret Price singing Contessa and Jessye Norman .....
BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVA SENA!
AMAZING!!!!!!!!!
