I had the great honour and pleasure to sing with the Prague Chamber Choir, accompanying Ewa in a series of concerts in Valladolid and Léon in the year 2009, an experience that went to the marrow of our bones and one that we will never be able to forget ... She sang mostly Rossini which is no surprise as she was, still is and probably forever will be remembered as one the greatest Rossini singers, along with the legendary Marilyn Horne ... Ewa´s voice was deeper, darker and slightly less agile than Marilyn´s, however the sheer volume of her voice and her overwhelming personality and stage presence cast a different, darker and more dramatic light on the music that we know mainly thanks to and in the interpretation of those two unforgettable operatic heroines ... Rest in peace, dear Ewa, and thank you for what you gave to the world of music with your precious gift of beauty, you will never be forgotten ...
I've heard this opera aria countless times by the best opera stars in history, Callas, etc. and no one can compare with Podles in this particular piece. Her voice is riveting.
Never heard of her, but so sad to know, she was the only one who could make one voice, from law to the high notes, the perfect Alt/Mezzo for sure, with a beautiful sound also!

I appreciate your posts but if you're going to share this woman's incredible voice, please make the recording quality better.
this is an in house recording from someone in the audience... you should thank jovi for sharing such marvelous gems instead of complaining
@@raphaelpisano5462 :: AND if you had word-comprehension skills you would have realized I wasn't "complaining". I made a _polite_ "suggestion".
@@DiomedesDioscuro :: Yes, I did.
and what great recordings have you posted?
