@gustopheles Why would you assume that? I am not talking about the late Callas because why even go there? I was mainly referring to the beauty of tone which you must admit was never her forte. Even Callas herself didn´t like it. I try to give credit where it´s due. Callas was a force to be reckoned with, no question about it, and I LOVE her in some roles, not all. I try not to let my fanaticism for a diva taint my assessments on a singer. Can you say the same?
This is beyond beautiful, the gods surely blessed her with an incredible voice on top of her physical beauty. Where can all the hate come from I wonder? Callas fans are particulary vicious and deranged. Not to take anything away from la Divina, but let´s face it, this beauty of tone Callas never possessed, and no one could in honesty deny the harsh or "squashed" sounds, nor the wobble on Callas´s very high notes. If Callas was alive, she´d be cheering Anna on. Anna haters, STFU.
@lamusicahera I think you´d better learn to speak English before you post comments on youtube. TO much? She has to be TEACHED?? Her voice HAVE? This is what she NEED? Hit the English grammar books first, then we´ll discuss opera.
I totally agree with you....if we talk about personal taste, everything is questionable, but it would be stupid and totally unfair to say that this woman does not have a wonderful gift in her voice.....furthermore, it's vain to make comparison with a singer like Maria Callas who is an Icona for the whole planet....

@CoreyLeig So you listened to a couple of the compilation discs Callas released in the 60s and think you can come up with a reasonable assessment.
