Listen to the 1951 version of this scene and you will hear how Callas worked to refine and enhance her ability to convey the character she was portraying via her vocal skills. While the 1951 is magnificent and sung in the largely vocal only way [of course, it is Callas so even that "ordinary" approach delivers more from her] and then how in this version she is both smoother [interestingly as many sopranos nowadays seem to think that harshness is good acting with the voice] and more nuanced both technically and emotionally. She continued to do this refining for her entire career, working tirelessly to make opera what it is meant to be: a sung drama not a concert in costume.
