This is remarkable. I've heard more than a dozen versions of this aria and this is far and away the best--another reminder, not just of the fine voice, but also the splendid musician she was.
This date of the perf. is quite surprising to me. I would have guessed that this was the very early Price of her Salzburg and Met debuts or prior. This is so good it's beyond praise.
How effortlessly and how heartbreakingly beautifully does Price float her exquisite high notes. The beauty of her voice is one not merely of sound but of meaning as well. Her voice goes deep into our hearts and re-awakens the sleeping humanity there, and revives in us the joy of being alive, if only for the moment.
@user-oy9nn3vc3nSorry, Mr./Mrs. Coward who hides behind a stupid pseudonym, she is not. And her French (when she even bothers to try to pronounce the words) is downright bad.
She owns the most beautiful lyric soprano voice I have ever heard. Uff... It was live! Overwhelming! It is very difficult to match her on this level. I am a fan of hers. She's simply a natural phenomenon. This floating sound requires training, and work plus incredible musical intelligence which I cannot even imagine.
@@elisabetaploscaru7224 Sorry, I missed your comment. Ms. Zeani is obviously on the same level. She just died. I'm a big fan. Eileen Farrell is worth listening to as well.
Unfortunately, she left us ,leaving us poorer. She was one of the most important artist of xx century. She was the best Violetta ever; she played this role 648 times.
Utterly exquisite singing, like finely spun gold! It simply thrills me to hear the pure beauty of this divine voice. Thank you for posting this. Bravissima La Price!
Probably the greatest American opera singer ever
Perfection, and a wonderful advocate for young singers! Glorious!
My God I thought it was a recording until the audience cheered at the end. Unbelievable.
Me too! She is simply amazing...a goddess!
That's what one's call "pure and unadulterated" talent!!...hauntingly beautiful!🎶🎤
Y yo tambien !
And Europeans don't cheer like that
It is a recording of a live performance

My favorite is Sutherland's, but there's no denying this is spine-chillingly beautiful.
I've heard many sopranos sing this aria. Ms Price is sublime. GORGEOUS

She was otherworldly.
@@sanfordpress8943 IS STILL otherworldly! She's still alive!
How truly exquisitely put! Couldn't have said it better myself! BRAVO!
❤❤❤❤❤ She should have recorded the complete opera.
i think leontyne sings this better than ANYONE!
She is wonderful like romanian Virginia Zeani.
My god but what a glorious sound
Leontyne OWNS this aria!
There is only one Leontyne Price - that sound is the creed, canon and episcopate of opera.
This is the most ethereally beautiful rendition I have ever heard!

What can she not sing better than any other soprano??????????????? The greatest Aida cannot possibly be the greatest Louise!
probably not a great Lakme or Olympia....other than that - yup! lol
The best of the best! 💐💖
I am truly in heaven listening to this glorious voice. Heavenly♥️
A BLZ E PERFEIÇÃO DE SUA IRRESISTÍVEL VOZ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A INCOMPARÁVEL , " LA PRICE "!

I am agree with you.I want to propose to you to listen and romanian Virginia Zeani.
@@elisabetaploscaru7224 Zeani. Perfection

@@elisabetaploscaru7224 Yes, she was indeed great. I cannot hide that I am Leontyne's fanatic. But Ms Zeani is on the same level (almost).
This is what falling in love sounds like.
Chills everywhere! How does this have only 1161 views?? She is exquisite.
PEOPLE HAVE LOST THEIR HEARING ABILITY
