Oh my.....I'd forgotten about Eileen Farrell. I fell in love with her on an old Messiah recording but hadn't heard of her for years. This recording was wonderful.
"I see every word I sing," she said in an interview with Charlie Rose. Her biography (Can't Help Singing: The Life of Eileen Farrell, 1999) is a must read. She belongs to a select group of great American born (and trained) sopranos, including Ponselle, Price, and Sills. Bravissima!

This must definitely be one of the best recorded versions of the aria.

Superb singing. The greatest American dramatic soprano after Ponselle.
