Caballe she is a wonderful gift to the earth.

What an instrument she had, my God! What a Heavenly sound!

Que Maravilla! Me encanta! Canta como un angel!

Caballé est l'une des plus grandes Norma jamais entendue, sinon la plus grande. La pureté et la puissance de sa voix sont incomparables. Un bonheur toujours renouvelé de l'écouter dans cet air. DIVINA

Well ... maybe nobody told you yet: Opera is about SINGING. If I want to see a half naked, sexy woman with a mediocre voice, I either go to a striptease show or watch Netrebko. Caballé was a wonderful singer with perfect technique, and at least in the performance I saw her, also a great actress. The expressionless whale is also valid for Pavarotti. But then ... would you want to miss him in opera history?

Magnifica mezza di voce!!!!

Fabulous performance. I'm glad the Russians salute great singing. Mme. Caballé very properly moved the proceedings forward. Brava, diva!

[KissaMyEyes]

There is not an instrument on earth I would rather hear in sotto voce / pianissimo than Caballe's soprano.

@ingriddoppler Glorious singing of immortal aria ... what a voice, feeling ... Madame Caballe is amazing as always, and very great personality as well. Thank you for reminding me wonderful performance.
