Mady Mesplé sings Popoli di Tessaglia

Mozart concert aria, following the Alceste myth (and maybe to be included in a Gluck Alceste performance for a particuliar singerof his time).

her pitch accuracy is really shaky as the approaches the high G, she has the range and the timbre up there, but its not really in tune. no one can sing this like dessay.

[foropera]

For theatrical "acuracy" she has more stars than Dessay here to me. Now if you don't like Callas you might not be sensitive to that aspect, and more to the prettiness of the sound? Often time Instrumentalists listen to singing with a particuliar attention too vibrato and pitch, and it is also normal and their job! And Mesplé was a very good pianist.

I still prefere Sylvia Geszty for Mozart concert arias. She is unsurpased.

Can you share some of them here, so? I just know her name.

i heard she was undergoing a hormone imbalance too though. that might be another reason

The highest notes are horrible ]:

Como ela conseguiu vibrar a voz numa nota tao aguda????

Misericórdia, Senhor. Incrível demais.

@foropera The is one cd of all Mozart's concert arias singed by her. I'll try to upload something. See you :o)

Wonderful! Thanks for sharing. I love Mady so much.

Yet I would like to hear this transposed a tone down, in the original diapason, which includes that at Mozart's time it was sung by more lyric voices...Sutherland would have done it beautifully, as her Non sei capace shows.

@eradesso Roberta Peters is worse

[toddydelahov]

Única!

Magnífica! Isso sim que é uma soprano leegero, com aptidão as coloraturas! Parabéns Mady, vc é um exemplo eterno para nós, da futura geração da música erudita!

[eradesso]

to be honest, if one wants to hear horrible Gs, they should listen to Gruberova's ;)

[verdinfishy]

@ eradesso

LOL! Edda Moser is (was) a wonderful dramatic coloratura soprano but, come one, her high Gs are kind of weak (no offence) other that that, her "popoli di tessaglia" is really beautiful.
