@pedrofribeiro You seem to be confused, the high note youre talking about in this recording is an Eb6. I dont know what piece youre talking about with Von Stade, but if you think she sang a Bb above high F youre definitely wrong. She has never to my knowledge publically performed anything high than E6, it seems highly unlikely she would in recital, ive seen her in recital
@skitzo429 The final note in the cadenza(5:14-5:21) is an F6. There are other records of this performance where the audio is little bit more clear and you can hear it, bright as day. About the highest note, well, Ms.Battle's highest role was Zerbinetta, but in recitals she usually sang High Fs, and in a particular show-off performance with Frederica Von Stade, Ms.Battle sang a High Bb.
@pedrofribeiro there is no F6, to my knowledge no recording of her singing a high F exists, Zerbinetta is the highest role she ever sang, which has an E
My goodness, incredible!!! I love it!!!

@skitzo429 I could be wrong, but isn't there an F6 in "Vorrei spiegarvi, o Dio"? She does a lovely live performance and it's here on YouTube.
