  • Fiery Spanish soprano with a voice encased in velvet and satin! (:-D) One of the greatest ever...

  • How wonderful!

    I stumbled upon an LP of Conchita Supervía years ago, and she's been one of my favorites ever since. Her singing was so effortless, clear and expressive!

  • Beautiful, unique artist. Thank you.

  • Mesmerizing each time anew.Thanks.

  • Please could you upload the entire film on

    O. S.?

    Thanks, this is gorgeous!

  • Fantastic! Supervia voice was unique. The legendary Spanish mezzo is unforgettable.

    Thanks for this video!

  • Fabulous, fabulous. My favourite bit in the film! Merci merci. In the book, the Baba l'Etoile character is based on Toti Dal Monte. Supervia rocks. "We want Baba!!"
