I love Carol Vaness singing Mozart heroines. In the 1980's, she was the number one Mozart soprano. Gundula Janowitz and Lucia Popp were still singing but they had nothing on Vaness - a big, dark, regial voice that reminds me a little of Leontyne Price. Her Mozart was exquisite especially her Countess, Donna Anna, Fiordiligi and Elvira. What a brilliant Come Scoglio she sings here

I love her Countess, she is perfect for that role :) and I love also her interpretation of this aria but I've never seen her doing the role...

Hot damn!

@coloraturafan The date given at the end of the concert video is August 1990, from Stockholm's Royal Palace. Thank you for your wonderful videos - a treasure trove of great, great singing. This must truly be a labor of love for you and a magnificent gift to all of your followers. Thank you is inadequate, but I'll repeat it. THANK YOU!

Carol Vaness is a magnificent Mozart singer. The spin in her tone makes her voice both dark and thrilling. I admire her greatly for this! Awesome artist for the ages.

She was a good comic singer too. I was just thinking of her in Idomeneo as a spoiled brat princess. So she played a tragic girl in the comedies, and a comic girl in an opera seria. ;)
I can't believe no one has commented on this... Then again, this is my first seeing it and you posted this a month ago. I've obviously missed a lot of your video adds!
Vaness is ideally suited to this role. What year is this? I'm assuming mid-to-late-80's?

I don't have a date for this concert. It really is a lovely evening for Vaness (who was btw, my first Tosca). I think this is from the mid 80's.
