There are major intonation & pitch problems here; and at such a young age, the overtaxed voice is already begins to spread at the top.
This sort of career could brings in new audiences on dramatic merits alone.
But to Hell with anyone who is just LISTENING or who thinks a professional singer should have a patent ability to sing on pitch more than 60% of the time AND be a compelling stage presence.
With so many contemporaries who COULD, I fail to see why anyone ever paid attention to Silja.

I don't normally like her or her repertory (except as Senta) but here she is amazing, she may well be the perfect Brunnhilde: young voice and physique, perfect German pronunciation, great stage presence, deep knowlegde of Wagner and most off all a fearless approach! These are her first 2 minutes in the Opera, she is still not warm, but how she "attacks" these hight notes! Like laser beams, sharp, she is not coming up to them gradually and "safely" like most other singers. Brava!

Swing those hips you sexy bitch!

@Bastikalk He does not sing. He barks. Silja is too light for this part, she has to scream to make dramatic effects.

What does Adam sing? "Bald entbrannt' brünstiger Streit"? "Brünnhilde stürme zum Fight"?

It may be Schippers conducting, but she's singing at Böhm's tempi... Revelatory clip; where do you get this stuff? Thanks again!

I just listened to her in ROH in late 2009. he's about 70 years old then.
This woman is unreal.

This Woman is really Wagnerian. Better stage acting than Nilsson. She is astoundin . Her voice is also perfect for this Aria.
