Bel canto just means beautiful singing. These words have been applied to the genre practiced by Rossini, Donizetti and Bellini, but it can also mean any beautiful singing in Italian. Caballe is taking her bel canto technique, she is one of the prime practitioners, and applying it to Mozart. I find the results very beautiful. This is my first experience of Caballe singing Mozart.

Mozart is not bel canto singing Do some research and study and learn very few did it well Callas, Caballe, Sutherland.

[mimsiesdaddy]

Caballe and Price were the only two great Divas to the art of opera Sutherland had a good top voice but poor diction. Fleming is just another good opera singer

con tutto il rispetto ad una delle più grandi soprano della storia, per cantare mozart ci vogliono ben altre qualità vocali ed interpretative. naturalmente second il mio modestissimo ed umile parere.

On en s'attend pas trop à entendre Monserrat Caballe dans Mozart. J'aime bien mais sans plus ... Elle ne me semble pas trop dans son élément...Enfin, ce que j'en dis ... !

[drodde5607]

on imagine assez peu Monserrat Caballe dans Mozart, et pourtant ...

Surprising video, which reminds us that madame Caballé studied all the secrets of the bel canto... and Mozart is pure bel canto. Incredible musicality and syle adequation ( it is a good occasion to hear again her marvelous Fiordiligi ). Bravissima, Montsy !

My God you're right. I apologize. Renee has a beautiful sound, but I hear and feel absolutely secure ringing technique and resonance in Caballe's voice. I've heard Fleming several times live as well as shared the stage with her, and it's always been a delight, but she's hard to hear, and I come away with questions. With Caballe as with Ponselle, Nilsson, Sutherland, and countless others, there are no questions, only confirmation and pure enjoyment.

Respond to this video... to attempt to shut up dissenting views exposes you as a fascist mentality.Miss Fleming's singing of Dove Sono is in my view perfection.The ways she sings the second reprise almost sotto voce is ana artistic tour de force.And her voice maintains it's smooth creamy beauty in every register and no matter the difficulty.None of this is to detract from Caballe, who is undoubtedly a great artist.But I happen to prefer Fleming, if you will allow me
