Annick Masiss - Il Viaggio a Reims - Rossini - Countess di Folleville's scene 1/2

Gioachino Rossini : IL VIAGGIO A REIMS
"Partir, o ciel! desio, e più partir non lice..."

One of the funniest opera characters ever written. La Massis as I use to call her is at least for me one of the most incredible coloratura sopranos I've ever heard and sadly one of the must underrated opera singers of our generation. I just love this woman. Her voice has no limits and she's such a terrific actress as well. As she usually does, she stole the show that night. Brava!!!

Hi! Do you have the first Corinna's aria? It is called "Arpa gentil".

I will be so happy to listen that again.

Thank you very much-

Ciao!
