Drag queens could learn a lot from operas divas.

The tonal mass of the Nilsson voice is heard in all its glory here. This aria is one of the toughest challenges ever written for a dramatic soprano. Very few will even touch or go near it. There haven't been very many: Flagstad, Nilsson, Callas, to name a few. It's almost impossible to sing. Only the most accomplished and undaunted dare apply. It's a killer.

First Class.

@DivaDeb1234 yes all of these for german tv were synched
-
Amazing, and no this is not a lipsync. The studio recording has a much faster tempi, the video is out of synca common problem here. Check out the 1964 tv concert she did, an superhuman perfomance of this aria. The concert also included an Liebestod that could be one of the most beautiful perfomances ever made!

lol...quite yes she was . And in her prime a huge nordic voice ...extraordinary.
-
Well is it lip synced or not ?
Either way it's great !
I 'd just like to know one way or the other.

OK, you win, your opera scholarship has trumped mine. Now you are obligated to post those recordings. I'm waiting especially for the Callas version.

Not only was Birgit a great singer, she was a very good actress. There is nothing cheap or overly theatrical, no swirling her dress, etc. She was a theatrical goddess.
