Edita Gruberova had a rather "eccentric" vocal sound, but she was amazing, and people traveled all over to hear her.

I never saw him, but am told the voice was exciting.Whenever we hear thunder, we know he is singing in heaven!

I was 15 and the first singer I ever saw live was Mario in my first opera, Aida.I saw him 40 times, and the man was sensational.He had a "bronze column of sound" from bottom to top.Loved this man.He once came out and said,"Hello,boys" in my poor little ear!!!!

I have been so happy to have sung in various opera groups, and have enjoyed some fine artists (like Sam Ramey,Paul Plishka, and Marisa Galvany) BUT some people live in a world of their own..like Sue...who also does the E flat in the Aida which I think I have published. She vocalizes on our NY bridge and therefore this accounts for many auto crashes. Mio Dio!!!!!!!!!

When I taught languages I would do little plays with the kids. This is not our best effort, but it was so adorable to have the kids do this Barbiere Scene. I sang many Bartolos (one with Ramey) so I was familiar with this. LOVE KIDS!!!

Just one of the most remarkable examples of great singing. I place him with Gigli,Carreras and Bjoerling for the beauty of tone.

Here is the great man at 72. We never realized that he would emerge as one of the greatest singers ever,. I saw him 5 years later, and the man was amazing.

The only time I ever was able to chat online with the dear widow of a great singer who left us so early.A tragedy but we will always remember dear Marcello who laughed when I said "Oh..you, sang Deek and his Johnson!!!. Wilma Ahrens is a gallant lady and I try to do what I can..but so difficult. He was great!!!!!!

Over the years, you come to find the very special operatic moments that thrill!!! Di Stefano,in 1950, sounds like the greatest, but sadly he made errors in his technique, but still the man was fabulous.
