  • Who was this Scarpia?

  • dare i say it? better version than Maria Callas- singing tone much more lyrical and expressive, acting superb

  • What a magnificent woman! I saw her sing many times, & although I always appreciated the voice, I was too young then to appreciate how beautiful & sexy she was. The passion is intense. She must have made some man very happy.

  • and people said opera singers of old didn't act well.... holy crap I've been lied to.

  • "Onegin 65" è il nome di granzia! :D

  • Bellísimo, sublime la interpretación de Shirley Verrett, su voz plena, Brava, Brava!!!!

  • exquisite! till now i ranked callus as best acting while her singing ....shirley has invaded the throne! vocally tho, Pricie is my favorite

  • Yes, yes, yes! My gods what an actress and singer!

  • Nice and very original, unique and magnifique. Great Job for a difficult operistic area.
