Many do not realize how difficult this aria is, and she did it live in front of audience. You can hear a pin drop because the audience is enthralled. She wore the loveliest gowns, but her voice out shown all that great unique fashion.
Aaaaah! Sublime! Greetings of the day to all my friends, featuring the incomparable and immortal Kathleen Battle, one if the greatest sopranos of All Time...!
Like all your luscious singing you made it a show-stopping concert showpiece with your lovely stamp upon it, Miss Battle. Thanks for the voice that always makes me think of fine pearls being pulled across piles of the softest velvet. !!!
Sheer bliss from The Voice of An Angel. Thank you, Kathleen. Hearing you sing live at Carnegie Hall, years ago, was just as much a thrill as it is now. Brava!

Softer version of this song. There is an earlier version of this song when she was just a bit younger...She blows it out of the park. To bad there are no more recordings she has done after the fall from the met.
Youth and age are deeply fascinated by this her song,This is wonderful vocal. From where are you watching this video ？ Vousregardez que catte video est du pays ？Voce esta assistindo que este video e do pais ？ Estas viendo que este video es del pais ？
She has a great voice of course. It sounded to me like she was more connected to the beauty of her voice than to the emotional connection she has with what she's singing. And there were far, Far, FAR too many unnecessary and repetitive arm gestures, which I found artificial and distracting.
Ironic that relatively few Americans speak more than one language compared to Europeans. However, when it comes to opera singers trained in USA, Americans are capable to sing , if not necessarily speak, in multiple languages much better than their European counterparts. Madame Tebaldi never ventured beyond her Italian boundaries. Price, Fleming, Sills, Battle or Studer ,to name a few, sang in Italian, French or German all the time.
Great voice and a good technique, but sung completely without any real meaning, feeling or emotion. One colour. A technically brilliant but very boring performance. A real pity because her voice was so beautiful, perhaps part of the reason her Opera career was so short.

She has a voice that will never be replicated!
Her gowns were always fabulous and stylish, but more than that, she knew how to wear them! Ah! Our dear Pristine Kathleen!
Happy 71st Anniversary Of Life
Our Dearest, Kathleen Battle

All Love, Honor & Respect
For Your Precious Gift To Us ALL!
A diva in her own right with a voice from heaven...
Who can disagree with that ?
Voz cristalina y aterciopelada una de las grandes sopranos ligeras de los ultimos tiempos!
Diva Kathleen Battle has an angelic voice.
She's extraordinary.
Oh, Kathleen, this song has never brought tears to my eyes. It's that voice. God bless you.
Such a beautiful voice!!!!
Dan Saunders is a wonderful accompanist. This is the period in which her voice was at its best.
George Downtown - Yes, he was superb as well.
I bet he had to put up with a lot of insecure diva.
One of the greatest lyrical sopranos of our time
@S R She's a coloratura soprano not a lyrical soprano.

SHEER PERFECTION!!!!

One of a kind. Magnificent voice and a stellar sense of style to boot.
Absolute goosebumps listening to her sing this. Incredible performance!
Unforgettable voice,Kathleen,you are peace of my soul.
Pity I can press only one thumb up instead of a hundred. Great tone of voice, volume and interpretation.
Sheer bliss from The Voice of An Angel. Thank you, Kathleen. Hearing you sing live at Carnegie Hall, years ago, was just as much a thrill as it is now. Brava!
She's beautiful!
Nobody handle this song better in all its forms than Kathleen Battle!!!
Grist is also adorably cute, fits the part.
She looks fabulous for 71 years old.
This video is from 1987.
How can someone not like this, i mean some of the notes were shifted from original but she made it her own!
One of Miss Battle's signature roles, brava!
And bravo for the pianist, too! :)
She had great taste in dresses. Very fashionable.

Uhm how about the voice disrespectful asshole

Much deserved.
Voz y piano molto bello 😙😙
perfect
Une pure merveille dans tous les sens du terme !
I adore her
You and I.
At 6:26min she makes a very unusual "purring trill" in her throat. Never heard that kind before!

Brawo!
❤️❤️❤️
dolce 🥰

Is this that more robust version from a younger Kathleen?

❤🎉❤
Wow she has beautiful voice 😗
I also like this but,I like the penthouse ver better!
OK! Let's enjoy Sumi Jo's Una voce this time!
Go look her up then.
Look up Kathleen Battle - Rossini: Una voce poco fa so you know what I mean.
Youth and age are deeply fascinated by this her song,This is wonderful vocal. From where are you watching this video ？ Vousregardez que catte video est du pays ？Voce esta assistindo que este video e do pais ？ Estas viendo que este video es del pais ？
wau
I mean... it's cute!
Fa senza accento!
Sig. Boschi - Lei direbbe che la sua pronuncia non e' italiana o anche il suo modo di fraseggiare?
She has a great voice of course. It sounded to me like she was more connected to the beauty of her voice than to the emotional connection she has with what she's singing. And there were far, Far, FAR too many unnecessary and repetitive arm gestures, which I found artificial and distracting.
La pronuncia mi pare corretta, il fraseggio è un po' rigido e non incisivo...perché me lo chiede? :-)

Pare sia stata una stronzissima persona, ma che voce!
Very careful singing, no abandon. Thus isn't bel canto.
no es bel canto y ella no usa el pecho y el sonido es pobre.
It's too slowly!
she need coloratura
@*Daniel_560 * she is a coloratura soprano. She does'nt need what she already is.
Too much grand gesturing. Rosina (and her music) was coy and sly.
