she was the topmost mezzo-soprano coloratura after Pauline Viardot and Maria Malibran. And one needs not compare her with Bartoli to see that Cecilia is over trying to sing like a coloratura.

MERAVIGLIOSA, PENSANDO AL PERIODO IN CUI CANTAVA.....AGILITA' VERAMENTE ROSSINIANA, BELLA DIZIONE, BEL COLORE E OTTIMO USO DEL FIATO...AD AVERCENE DI ROSINE COSI'.....GRAZIE

@MrNeveman *delle non selle :)

una selle grandi stelle di tanto tempo fa...davvero grande anche se lo stile di canto, la tecnica e anche i gusti sono quelli del primo novecento ormai trapassati e non di grande godimento ai tempi odierni..una vocina molto agile ed adatta al repertorio

One of the greatest Rossini interpreters, if not the greatest. Such a lovely, flexible, fresh voice, such joie de vivre... and the vibrato may not be to everyone's taste but it fits here somehow. I love her.

Charm, fantasy, taste, and a strong technique to support all that artistry....And, an artist creating/re-creating a character, a believable one.... I don't get the feeling that she is pleasing herself with this interpretation, but the music, and the character.
The vibrato which affects people here, stupidly, I must say, is given to this period, and doesn't bother the artistry with which the aria is delivered.

@themfromspace Seeing comments like yours about this rendition hurts my eyes.
Why do I think that some of the 19th century divas sang with this much character instead of the boring perfection we often hear on modern recordings?

"This aria is not for her"? What?! She was the greatest Cenerentola of her generation, packed houses all over Europe. she was a true Rossini singer - big range, warm tone, even throughout. Very rare. She makes Bartoli sound like a chicken about to lay an egg. Thank you for posting this!
