Magnificent performance by Joan Sutherland, probably the greatest testament to her heroic coloratura (along with Esclarmonde), and for a change she makes attempt of using a strong low register. This aria is extremely difficult with all the runs up and down dipping down to low Bb and up to high C (with interpolated high Eb's).

Sutherland only
she owns this aria, forever and ever
-
@primohomme What a great way to describe the tessitura of those roles!!! They are such unique roles in terms of the tessitura!
-
with all due respect, i believe you should mention in the description that this aria is from verdi's attila. many people might not know it.
excellent performance by dame JS (as always) by the way
-
@OperaMystery80 cont. Plus, the role seems to sit higher in the tessitura than Lady Macbeth and Abigaille. Don't get me wrong though, I respect your opinion, and I do love Dimitrova (as Abigaille) and Studer (as Salome) as artists - so I'm not bashing them :)
-
@OperaMystery80 I understand your point, but when you read the score you can see why Dame Joan makes it work so well - the aria really is more suited to the agility of her voice as opposed to the heavier likes of Dimitrova. When I hear Dimitrova, Theodossiou, Studer and other dramatic/assoluta sopranos sing this, I'm sitting there nervously hoping they reach the notes or don't kill their voice then and there, plus they feel so much slower and laborious. Sutherland just makes it APPEAR so easy!

@raigekimaru i AGREE 100%

WAHT AN INSTRUMENT!!! HOW INCREDIBLE THIS VOICE WAS...how extraordinary...
But, it should be said, the voice is all there is to appreciate here.... Nothing is said in words neither in all the indications Verdi wrote in the score.
Just a voice and a technique.... INCREDIBLE, both of them... and yet.....

@Operaphile
Oh yes indeed, though the range is similar and the agility is heroic, the tessitura sits more constantly higher than in roles like Lady Macbeth or Abigaille which have a bifurcated tessitura.
