Neither Milanov nor Tebaldi were perfect Verdi singers. Late Verdi, yes, but what about the roles demanding trills (Neither Milanov nor Tebaldi had a trill) and Bel Canto schooling? Ponselle and, especially Callas, are superior there.

Ponselle sounds so young here. Great duet by both of them.

@Elisabetta611 she sang arias from norma,traviata,tosca,carmen,er­nani,le vestale and more listen to the recordings and compare,callas is copying.Ponselle was Callas's favorite singer.

Glorious.TY j for posting.

[Elisabetta611]

@hobo1975 No. She really was not. Esp. since Ponselle never sang much Bel Canto.

[hobo1975]

@Elisabetta611 you shouldnt use callas with ponselle,two different lvls,callas was just a copy of ponselle.

Ponselle and Stracciari: it just doesn't get any better. Two of the greatest all-time voices singing as God had meant. I love this recording.  Thanks for sharing with us.

Two of the greatest Verdi singers who ever lived. Ponselle had a voice of liquid gold and dark velvet, and Stracciari never sang in bad taste or belted like Ruffo, always a great technique that preserved his glorious voice until the day he died.
