I am on this new "Buratto thing." Wonderful to find a new voice the way I did w.Soviero Mimi in 1977. She is superb!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

With Jeemy gone, we will have the Ring back next season, but I fear the orchestra will not rise to his level. We used to need DEPENDS at a La Puma performance. I pppp'd in my pantaloni!!!!!

I may have posted this, but if you want to cry like me...you watch this. She would come forward slowly on "Ma quando vien lo sgelo" (note a kind of "breath" on the "Ma" and then let out a Birgit Nilssonian top note on "E mio" that threw us on the floor. (Remember, we were standees.)….I miss her so.....Called her on every birthday....NO ONE in my view had the combination of beauty of tone and WAGNERIAN volume.

My favorite version of this scene with Giuseppe Taddei (6/26/16) and Rosanna Carteri.The way he says the word "Entrate" is so warm...she never came here..a pity!!!!!

Gorgeous soprano. When she started the Norina Don Pasquale aria, the resonance was so amazing, I thought she was singing in my EAR!
