Greatest ever american soprano Leontyne Price singing the famous Summertime from George Gershwin's Porgy and Bess
Please, also listen to Verdi's O patria, from opera Aida sung by her at her farewell performance at the Metropolitan Opera house new york city usa

What did I just listen to?.... This is pure heaven!

Who else can do this besides Renata?

La Diva has no equal in the depth of this great voice. I saw/heard her in recital in1976 and I was transported to another world. We will never hear a voice like this again thank you all for all the postings

This was the first black lady I had ever heard sing. (My parents had at least one of her albums.) She was obviously one of the best. Nevertheless, I like Ella Fitzgerald's version better, because I could understand the words. Also, the music seemed to reach right down into my soul and/or guts to make me feel the intention.

Jesus christ, I can't get over how good this is. Best summertime I've ever heard.

That's about as close to heaven as you can get on earth. I've heard Mme Price sing this dozens of times, live and on tape, and it's fresh and surprising every time. Thanks so much.
Mine ears have heard the glory . . .
