I remember the telecast of Verdi's Requiem. It was on Saint Vitus in our biggest church in Prague. She sang the mezzo-soprano part. when she was supposed to be shot, the director chose to shoot in Prague. Nobody understood what was going on. Around her neck was a cross with rubies. Totally unacceptable for communists. But she was not a believer, she said it was a provocation. But I don't know for sure. Hard to judge... KGB agent for sure.. I don't like her, but I definitely do like her voice.
Нет, она была верующей православной христианкой и не была агентом КГБ! Она стала великой вопреки власти КПСС и КГБ благодаря своему уникальному голосу, таланту и труду...
Who cares if she was a KGB agent or not, I am here for her voice. Who knows what she would say about the Russian invasion of Ukraine, but I like to think she would be against Putin's "special operation".
Her timber remains original and her great performances will never be forgotten.
If only Sutherland and Pavarotti also recorded the studio recording with her as the Azucena.
großartig!
Magnifique…
Brava!
I remember seeing this production. Sutherland was lead role. Obrasova brought the house down
Truly a magnificent and instantly recognisable instrument.
Molto brava, che voce!

Amazing! Thank you!

Difficult to listen to a KGB agent in these times.
Hahahahahaha

Apparently, I am wrong, a month before her death she signed a letter of approval of Putin's policy in Crimea. Oh, well...
