Okay, all you mad opera queens out there, don*t throw things at me. I'm a huge Nilsson fan, I just don*t especially care for her singing Eboli. Anyone else feel the same way.

What a truly glorious sound! Bravassima!

This womans voice SOARS! Its so thick and lovely hands down one of the greatest voices ever.

A fascinating recording. People forget (or never knew) how good Nilsson could be in the Italian repertoire (check out her Aida , Tosca, or Forza). A very smart singer, I remember seeing (hearing?) an interview where she explained the stylistic differences (use of portamento etc.) between the Italian and German style. As for singing a mezzo aria, thisone is often sung in concert by sopranos with a good low range (which Nilsson does). Many sections of Die Walkure lie quite low in the voice,

I totally agree! verrett is the much more interesting performer

@RobNYNY1957 You are incorrect. The artist who created the role had a freakish voice with a wide range. Verdi wrote both of her arias to show off her range.

in score is wrote 'Do bemolle' , in german/english notation is Cflat
read the score
ignorant !

I continue to be absolutely AMAZED at how she hits the B-flat absofrickinlutely dead CENTER perfectly focused at the 3:00 mark!! Every other recording I've heard, the singer always SCOOPS up to it before finding their placement. Then for good measure, she duplicates the feat again on the A-flat at the 3:55 mark!

I don't know about that. You really don't hear all that many sopranos either nailing b-flat dead center from the get go like Nilsson. She was unique.
