Extraordinarily good - Elizabeth Vaughan was always fabulous in Verdi's operas. I too heard her Abigaille in Nabucco with Opera North. It was the last time she sang the role which had brought her to prominence as a very young singer at Welsh National opera. Her Leonora - sung here in English - is full voiced and dramatic. Thank you so much for posting this. All we need now is something from her Buttefly and Abigaille perhaps.
She did a lovely Amelia/Maria in Boccanegra with Peter Glossop. Who also sang on this Forza. She sang in Trovatore with Charles Craig in Birmingham which was also exciting. Craig singing Di Quella pira two verses with real top Cs.
I first saw this wonderful singer as Abigail in Nabucco when I was about 15. Thank you for posting this. Does a complete recording exist. I would love to hear that! Many Thanks.
How wonderful to hear an absolutely fearless secure singer. She is quite something special
She was indeed sensational. A glorious voice and what volume too - simply magnificent.
Elizabeth Vaughan was Welsh
Yes its from a full recording.
And Welsh ones!

I wonder if anyone can post the Simone Boccanegra she sang with Peter Glossop at ROH.
