Montserrat Caballe as Magda in Puccini's La Rondine. I love her breath control and I'm quite amazed that her interpretation isn't more famous.

  • Just amazing... in my opinion this is the best rendition of this aria. The way she sings ah mio sogno, and ah mia vita at 1:46 .... divine. The legato line.... the killer high notes sung pianissimo like that. She had an incredible technique coupled with grand emotional capaibilites... brava

  • it is like her voice is a ladder to heaven.

  • You can't beat this. I've listened to all the greats and not so great singing this aria. and then this, in a class all by herself. The equivalent to Callas' Tosca. There are all the Toscas and then there is the Callas Tosca. Not one Sop has even attempted to sing the forte and the pianissimo in one breath. Truly mystifying.

  • @divaphoenix ... è vero sono gusti. In questo caso però vi sono anche dato oggettivi sulla qualità della voce: se avremo occasione ne parleremo. A presto!

  • @divaphoenix ...la bravura di un soprano sta proprio nel riuscire ad articolare su tutte le note. Basta ascoltare la Tebaldi su quest'aria. Vorrei proprio vedere poi chi potrebbe dire che la voce della Tebaldi non sia "ciò che di più bello si sia mai sentito" (queste sono le precise parole che la Caballé esprime proprio riguardo alla Tebaldi)

  • Mi spiace dover essere una voce dissonante ma... dove va a finire l'articolazione verbale? Oltre alle note non si dovrebbero pronunciare TUTTE le parole?

  • As a dramatic coloratura myself, this is by far the highest a person can achieve with this aria. She is truly the best!

  • I can hear the smile in her voice. She is not just singing this song, she is feeling it.

  • The gradual crescendo on "Chi la sottil carezza" is just, ahh,ahhhhh! I could die!!

  • Great****

  • my being vibrates. even through this recording, her warm voice is soothing my own throat like honey.. how beautiful it is when gifts like that are shared!
