"I'm gunna try an have a bash at...." She DESTROYED it haha XD BRAVA Dame Joan ^_^

@Richiesutherland that's a great story!

Sills and Sutherland had appeared together in FLEDERMAUS just a little over a year before this George London concert. Sitting to the side of the stage in her hosting duties, already retired from the stage and hearing this performance, I'm surprised Sills would later say the greatest voice she ever heard belonged to Rosa Ponselle. Whatever, Bev.

Kohn playing is astounding. Even the clip with him and Horne, you can see occasional grins on his face as he watches the singer. It's great when you have a great voice, paired with a great accompaniest. Stunning.

Astonishing accompanying by Kohn... Anyone can play the notes - he's supporting her like a full orchestra - elastic and rich playing. Bravo. Needless to say the lady is in magnificent voice for the period. What a great document of both artists!

Even at this age Dame Joan's top notes still had plenty of "ping". I guarantee that if you stood in front of her while she held that last note it would ring.....and so would your head.

I remember something: Joan had plans for retiring in 1991 and somehow she retired in 1990, but certainly in the 80s she was still at her hight. why retire so soon when could sing like this.

Listen to the clip of her singing the concert version of Anna Bolena in 1985. The D-natural at the end of "In separato Carcere." That D just sang, and it did ring. Perhaps we just caught Joan on a bad day.

Glorious, unbelievable, and at age 56. I know no-one will believe me, but they are using my Huguenots score. Eugene Kohn asked if I had one, and I lent my ancient score, on the provision that Joan would autograph the opening lines of "O beau pays", which she did. Her response: "Are you SURE he wants me to deface this page?" And in true Joan fashion, she tried not to cover up the musical staff--as if I would have cared!!

Fabulous fabulous. Strange that one of the most beautiful voices of the century should be one of the most robust, but there it is. Brava, Dame Joan!
You scarcely miss the orchestra when pianists like Eugene Kohn accompany singers.
