Since this song is on a Spanish subject, by a French composer, there is already considerable pastiche taking place. There is nothing particularly "Viennese" about Streich's singing here, and the tune has NOTHING to do with Seville; it concerns CADIZ. LOL

You are absolutely right.

What a superb version - voice, diction -simply perfection in every way!

I don't know how she sounded live, but her vocalization is some of the most beautiful ever heard. She is very musical, and has one of the most beautiful vibratos bar none. A truly beautiful voice and technique. Her "Queen" is as good as any and more beautiful than 99% of the coloraturas out there today.

I love Delibes!

Did you know that Les Filles de Cadix was written for a solo vioce?

One of the only operas ever composed for one singer.

Rita Streich sings this so perfectly.

Thanks for posting!
