Exquisite. Listen to the final 20-second phrase in which Joan shapes the vocal line with breathtaking legato, ornamentation and control. What a lesson in style and breath support this is to any singer. How can such a demanding phrase float in the musical air so effortlessly and etherally? Well, because the incomparable Joan is behind and underneath it!
This recording is from 1966.
