Linda di Chamounix, E Parcells

"O luce di quest'anima" from Linda di Chamounix by Donizetti
Elizabeth Parcells singing
from a 2005 interview:
Elizabeth: Linda di Chamounix isn't performed very often any place. When you are a coloratura soprano you are usually the title role of the opera you are in if it's any kind of a part. There are no comprimario coloratura parts. They are all starring roles. The way your career goes determines how many of those key roles you are going to get to sing. There are other voice types that can make a good living singing secondary roles. That's tougher for a coloratura. A coloratura has to be aggressive about her career.
