She is too amazing for words. She has it all! Combining excellent technique with that that gorgeous smoky tone. She sings this song (and several others!) better than anyone else I've listened to. And that final D6 is un-freaking-believable.
Do you know how many times I have listened this opera? with how many singers? But this is just the best interpretation!!! I am really excited!! what voice quality!!!
Someone recommended this to me and thank God they did. The most glorious voice just soaring away. No one will ever match that sound it is so breathtalkingly beautiful and rich. I just can't say enough about the one and only Leontyne Price.
When I first heard this years ago, the music was new to me and Price was in glorious sweet floating exprssive voice and that final high D just knocked me for a loop.
Your hearing is a bit off. First, Leontyne is a full-lyric/spinto who had high notes comparable to Sutherland and a middle Sutherland did not possess and Sills was a lyric coloratura WHO LOVED LEONTYNE'S SINGING. THEY WERE TWO DIFFERENT VOICE TYPES. Kind of like you're stupid, whereas others are not.

Her high D is extremely forced
She makes everything sound so easy! Her voice is pristine and pure gold
Thrilling! The D at the end of this recording is much better than her live 1970 rendering.

This also shows off her trill. I like her so much better than Fleming who wishes she was Price in her prime
Here's how it should be sung.
What about Beverly Sills
@@crazyorganist1609 Sills of course, in her early years.

Soprano, Leontyne Price
Queen Of Them All!
And She Shall Reign Forever!
She's no queen. She forced her voice too much
@@crazyorganist1609 "Crazy": Never a more perfect moniker!

lovely

Merveilleux !
Centrata in pieno la natura orgiastica dell'aria. Immensa e sfolgorante la prestazione vocale. Irripetibile oggi, purtroppo!
This is simply stunning. The vocal quality is shimmering throughout.
Holy crap! Amazing!

Our Dearest And Grandest
Madame Leontyne Price
Happy 93rd Anniversary Of LIfe

Queen Leontyne Price
Greatest Of Them ALL!
The clean and precise technique of Leontyne Price without all of the scooping, sliding and affected manners of Renée Fleming.
Sills never scooped
@@crazyorganist1609 No, she just wobbled all over the place.
Beverly Sills brings this alive. This lacks a lot. Sills owns this. This is just mushy. High D sounds extremely forced
Different voice type.
