Exquisite. I don't think I've heard the quality of Victoria's voice sound so ravishing as in this song. The orchestral support is also wonderful. (Do you know which orchestra and conductor are featured?) What a treat!

Philarmonia Orchestra. Anatole Fistonlardi conductor

difficult to choose a desert isle disc of victoria de los angeles , this one is way up in the top three or four , along with the villa lobos bachianas brasileiras no 5, la bohème, butterfly, la vida breve, carmen,pelléas, the list is fortunately very long of much loved recordings from this much loved great singer

Wow. I only knew the piano version of this... this is just wonderful!

[CesarePonti]

Exquisita interpretación de esta maravillosa aria de la òpera Goyescas de Enric Granados.Se puede cantar bien,pero es difícil superar a Victoria de los Angeles en la dicción y la delicadeza de la interpretación.

ethereal voice and song. always her voice was incomparable

[Vaguesondes]

in my opinion, one of the truly high-water marks of vocal recording: sublime singing perfectly allied to the wonderful music, sympathetically accompanied. Brava Victoria! And thank you for posting!

Nothing more beautiful was ever created than

tis music sung by this voice that combines passion with purity.

[billyguns2]

Victoria in her glorious prime, singing one of the most beautiful things ever penned by a composer. How tragic that Granados died so tragically; I will probably never understand why the creation treats human life so casually, So many of our greatest talents were snatched from us by vengeful and jealous agents: Kapell, Neveu, Cantelli, Lipatti, Granados, Mozart, Schubert, James Dean, River Phoenix, Robert Kennedy...
