  • Finishing a book about her family in Atlanta.... so glad I searched her in YouTube just listened to her beautiful voice with my 3 year old little lady and she said "I like it mommy"! Thank you!

  • Madame Dobbs was incredibly gifted and should have been featured in much more at the Met than the few roles she was given to sing.Her being Black was only part of the problem another gifted American diva Gianna D'Angelo was badly used there too. Both ladies did much BETTER in Europe. hank God we have the recordings and broadcast.

  • Wow...that trill @4:45

  • Wow This Just Made My Day!!!

  • you can see her live on an Ed Sullivan Show in 1957

  • Her beautiful voices rests nicely on my ears. I've never hear another coloratura sing as beautifully. The effortless high notes; uncomparable. Is there video of this great American treasure singing? There should be!!! Thanks for posting and we want more!!

  • Her top notes are splendid and she has a lovely spin too!! Fooled everything by the book!! Bright sound!! Just beautiful!!

  • What an amazing voice, and an amazing woman.

  • Exquisitely sung.  Clear, unconstricted high notes.

  • Oh my stars, this is so beautiful it gave me chills up and down my body, soul and spirit. Mattiwilda Dobbs had the whole package! Thank you, whoever posted this.
