@LongEyelandGuy I think with someone of her dramatic ability this would be an ideal role. When I heard it was being produced at City Opera, I turned paler than Jason at his wedding. Rehearsal time at State Theater is always pinched, and she needed much more time to go over the score with the conductor; there were some conflicts which I witnessed at dress rehearsal; Wagner wasn't thrilled either. But as you can hear, ever the professional, she did the best with what they gave her.

How old was he?

Of special interest to me is that the tenor James Wagner sings in this clip. He died much too young in 2003. I wish more of his singing was available on youtube.

U know I've heard of that! Yes it was to honor Maria Callas. I read it in a book some years ago that she sang Medea in her honor. I would LOVE to get it, but I only own this recording. I wouldn't even know where to look for that recording from 1983.

baritone,
you should then get her london concert performance of this work (1983, i think, a concert in honor of maria callas). the voice was very high and powerful, even better than this performance. her athens one was not as good, i think.

I have listened to this three times now and I find new stuff I love each time. Thanks for posting this! I love it!

WOW! This is great! She sounds so fresh and clear here. I have the old '82 Times review of her performances of Madea which were actually favorable. You just gave me a reason to go out and buy the pirate of this! Thanks!
