@montsyblackmadonna You're right about Montserrat Caballe's voice, but Eleanor's rendition is also quite exciting, as is Birgit Nilsson's, Deborah Voigt (circa 1994). There is room for many interpretations, but there is no voice quite like Montserrat's. Joan Dorneman of the Metropolitan Opera said that this color of voice does not exist anywhere else in the world other than Montserrat's throat! It is instantly recognizable, distinctive and quite beautiful.

Greatly sung with emotion and excellent vocal ability. Thank you Montserrat

@montsyblackmadonna Because there are many beautiful renditions of this piece and Eleanor Steber's just happens to be one of them.
-
Does anyone know if this recording is currently available on CD?

@montsyblackmadonna Peccato che non si sia fermata quando era la Dea dell'Opera...

@lampant I have to say that somehow , surprisingly, I feel ( or hear) a light or an ambiguous Callas resonance ... like an extremely light echo which becomes a precious ingredient to the performance. There is a mystical exaltation and yet an heroic, triumphant catharsis all at once. Yes, YES, YEs no matter what they say BRAVO MONTSERRRAT and again, NO MATTER WHAT THEY SAY! BRAVO

pambazo55 Pues usted debe saber que para protestantes o cristianos, musulmanes o ateos la música y el Arte en general al servicio de la Iglesia católica o de cualquier otro aparato del poder sobrepasa los límites de ésta maquinaria. Miguel Angel jamás fue un católico consumido, sin embargo le otorgó al Catalocismo su mejor legado, toda la parafernalia del boato católico es Arte que sobrepasa las miserias y vicios de la mentalidad humana. La música sacra y por extensión el Arte Sacro es sublime

@montsyblackmadonna for me sutherland is also a goddess, may she rest in peace
I perfectly agree . Renata Tebaldi's and Montserrat
Caballe's are the greatest renditions of Rossini's
