@ignoreitor Bartoli is okay, but she's no Beverly Sills.

Forever Beverly!

Though Beverly Sills was an adorable Rossina with a voice of an indisputable beauty, I remain with Cecilia Bartoli, due to the incomparable coloratura of her voice, her interpretive force and her look, which they transmit an indescribable emotion capable of perforating even the most insensitive of the hearts.

Aunque Beverly Sills fue una Rossina adorable con una voz de una belleza indiscutible, me quedo con Cecilia Bartoli,por la coloratura inigualable de su voz, su fuerza interpretativa y su mirada, que transmiten una emoción indescriptible capaz de perforar hasta el más
insensible de los corazones.

R.I.P. Beverly Sills. You are one of a kind.

This is so lovely. Thanks to whomever is responsible for posting it. What a wonderful memory. I started to enjoy opera because of Ms. Sills and her appearances on t.v. talk shows in the 1970s. She was a great New Yorker and will be missed so very much. But what a life - truly a life well-lived. She gave so much to us.

R.I.P bubbles, you were truly a gift to music.

A true vocal technician, she embodied the very meaning of being a true professional in every sense and will be deeply missed throughout the music world. There will never be another like her.
of course she'd still sound good, she was only what, 49 maybe 50? Do any of you think she would have sung a lot longer if her children didn't have the problems they had? I wonder...

The length of her career had nothing to do with the disabilities of her children, but rather the roles she chose to sing, such as Queen Elizabeth and Anna Bolena. While hugely successful in these roles, Sills admitted that her intense interpretation and committed to the scores shorten her career at least by 10 years.
With that said, she sacrificed her international career by limiting her engagements only to the brief breaks and holidays Muffy received from school.

There are now three different performances of Sills singing "Una Voce Poco Fa" available for comparison. This new addition of the famous aria, is taken from a 1979 concert performance in Indianapolis.
Sills is in splendid form, even though she retired 12 months later!
