Joan Sutherland canta La Pastorella composta da Gioacchino Rossini

MacMillan Theater
University of Toronto 1969
Richard Bonynge (piano)

It has been said Pavarotti's voice could be considered as THE solar one. If there was any adjective by which La Stupenda's voice could be known (according to my musical tastes and having in mind I love this woman since I was eight) it would be also "SOLAR". It's incredible to find out a female voice which could be considered as a solar voice, considering most of female voices are related to another type of vocal references such as soft and many others.
That's the mistery of Joan's voice... The only solar female voice of the world, with those stentorian notes...
And please, let's not talk about the match between Pavarotti's and Joan's voice: To die for...
Prima donna assoluta!!!!
Joan Sutherland, Leyla Gencer and Virginia Zeani, Goddess of the Olympus.
