Utter perfection vocally but facially i wish she didn't look so miserable, it's a joyus song. The colorartura is faultless, breathtakingly stunning, the timbre smoother than silk. Oh how we miss her. I go further: having listened to a very long list of other well kown singers perform this piece it's my opinion that litetally no‐one performs this aria anywhere NEAR as enchantingly and skillfully as Monsterat Caballe and I include my beloved Janet Baker whom, amazingly, I feel makes heavy weather of the thing. In this aria MC stands supreme, a dazzling diamond compared to the numerous lacklustre 'also ran' contributors I've so far sampled.
PS On reflection, regarding her dour facial expression the explanation may be that at the time she was possibly feeling unwell and therefore performing in difficult personal circumstances. I mean these comments kindly. Visually it's a great shame but aurally... matchless.
Maravilhosa! Do que já ouvi, a melhor performance, interpretação inteligente, muito musical. Técnica impecável servindo musicalidade cheia de beleza e profundidade.
I wholeheartedly concur.
Assoluta! Brava.
Extraordinary!

That day, she felt very bad and still performs magistral as usual, normally she was shinny and her face reflects happiness!!
