In so many aspects Stratas really sounds excellent in this role. The language opens her voice and conceals the often monochromatic warble tone she often is labored with. She was always a strange toned singer but here it works very well. That said she could sing anything in the lyric soprano repertoire making an incredible /indelible effect.
Pure effervescence!
Muy expresiva y bella interpretación,una de las mejores.
Lucia Popp pretty much owned this music, in my opinion, but I was surprised to hear how well Stratas navigates this music.

Belle artiste, mais sa voix est un peu stridente sur les iii, elle est meilleure dans les opéras romantiques.
