@@weiliu7319No, people like me who don't like listening lyric sopranos in mezzo roles. And I can't stand her theatrical, cocky personality on stage so as her chicken-like meddle register. Horne at least had virtuosity, range and unique tone.
I have recently discovered this mezzo. What an absolutely magnificent voice and perfectly suited to this lovely aria. If only Donizetti could have heard her!
Interpretazione eccellente per la bellezza del timbro e il legato perfetto che conferisce al canto quell'accento nobile che si addice all'Opera del Primo Ottocento.
Splendide Cossotto; voix puissante , riche , capable d'agilité , inégalée ... le XXe siècle a eu de la chance d'avoir une telle artiste auprès de qui '' les autres'' mezzo soprani sont bien pâles....
Brava! This one belongs to Cossotto! I once had a cassette tape of her singing this aria and I wore it out - have been hearing it in my head ever since. Glorious. I can understand the comparison to Verdi; this is Donizettti's "O Don Fatale" - very similar construction and excellent composition. Funny, for being a coloratura lover, I find all the best arias written for mezzos! Anna Bolena my favorite opera, I think the finer writing in it is for Giovanna, too.
Her diva behavior may put off some, but this woman loves to sing, she sings extremely well, and she has a beautiful voice. And her smile just wins me over!
Contessa Puppi Give a listen to Jamie Barton, a young American mezzo with OUTSTANDING talent. She won the Met Council Auditions back in 2007, won both the song prize and main competition in the Cardiff Singer of the World competition in 2013, and is starting to be snatched up by opera houses. I truly believe Jamie is going to soar to new heights, become a household name in opera, and ultimately become a legend of our time.
E' un ruolo che a volte ...le ha creato problemi.....a Milano diede Forfait....ma dire che è Noiosa...siamo sempre di fronte ad una cantante superlativa... questa registrazione è poco felice...(.invero ho ascoltato una Verret superlativa con Kraus...la lezione di queste due Grandi interpreti ha portato all'Apice i ruoli del mezzosoprano...ognuna con il proprio carisma...poi la serata Storta può capitare, ma mai così tanto da meritare un diniego.
(This was when opera was really...well, The Opera.) Just realized that this superb aria is absolutely the basis/inspiration for Eboli's aria when Verdi came to write it.
De forma subjetiva parece un aria de misterio quev en la realeza y en los ciudadanos tanto se da, como son los misterias, las creencias no racionales...
@AmatureComposer absolutely! Also I think their voices were made for each other...just listen to the final of Il Trovatore ( live or studio) - perfect harmony!!
cossotto is fabulous. I have always thought so, and could care less, even though I am a Callas fan, that some thought she upstaged her in Norma.. Callas should have thought of that, when she of her own volition stopped practicing, and let her voice go... That is not Cossotto's fault. She is a dynamic, presence, with quite the voice.
Come si faccia a dire che la Cossotto non interpreta, non lo so davvero. Vorrei sapere da questi grandi critici, quali sarebbero le vere interpreti di Leonora!!!
@bertoluccio SENZA VITA LA COSSOTTO ,SENZA CUORE Non sono assolutamente d'accordo ! Secondo me lei e una delle rare cantanti che canta con il cuore e recita con la voce.Poi che dire della sua tecnica, perfetta in ogni detaglio , il frassegio , la dizzione , il controllo della voce.Una delle poche mezzo con un registro medio ampio e pieno di colori , perche spesso ascoltiamo delle belle voci con un registro basso e registro alto ampio, ma il registro medio manca di potenza e di chiarezza.
As much as I admire her voice, her attempts to steal the spotlight from the other singers was annoying and unprofessional. I know she tried to do that to Sutherland when they were singing "Norma" and she failed.
I hope you got it from reliable sources. The media was in charge of misplacing Cossotto since his appearance with Callas. Today in the recordings it is noticeable that the young Fiorenza reduced the volume of her voice so as not to overshadow the tired and weak voice of Callas in her last Norma. But the press of the time chose to see the dark side, and since there were no free recordings at that time, people believed what they read in the newspapers
Certo che tutti i gusti sono giusti ... e si puo accettare tutto tranne dire che la Cossotto e noiosa ...In ogni momento si vede che sta interpretando ( non si puo piacere il modo) Sono d'accordo che non si puo piacere la sua voce o la sua interpretazione ma cmq. indubbitabilmente lei ha la stoffa di una artista da teatro ... La sua perfezione vocale viene appoghiata da una interepretazione a suo modo !
Sublime !
Cossotto is incredible singer and I cannot understand who are those people who disliked her. Totally insane
Horne fans. 🙂

I will say this for the indomitable Fiorenza -: she always gave everything to her audience. She was a force of nature.
I have recently discovered this mezzo. What an absolutely magnificent voice and perfectly suited to this lovely aria. If only Donizetti could have heard her!
The great Cossotto again! To me the greatest Mezzo! Just great!
Фантастической красоты голос, очень симпатичная и обоятельная женщина!!!!!
Спасибо вам Fiorenza !!!BRAVA!!!!!!
bravi! grazia mile!
Grandissimo!
She's really the best Leonora in La Favorita... absolutely fan of her singing and acting!
Interpretazione eccellente per la bellezza del timbro e il legato perfetto che conferisce al canto quell'accento nobile che si addice all'Opera del Primo Ottocento.

Who can be compared with Cossotto today? God, she
was magnificent!

Masterly performed... she owned a talent and an unusual spirit for singing... her role in this opera is beyond art... she is simply superb!
BRAVISSIMA!!!
Stupenda
I love this video...Cossotto really gave a smashing performance here.
Magnificent !
Bravissima
Una de las más grandes mezzos del siglo XX sin dudas
Beautiful and exciting. BRAVA
Brava

But Donizetti wrote this years before Verdi. So in essence isn't O Don Fatale Verdi's O Mio Fernando????
Mágico, hermosa Aria😢
she's one of the greats! i was a slave to her amneris at the met a year after this.
Una de las pocas cantantes que no se interpreta a si misma... De todas las mezzos la mas gande. Bravissima!!
Cossotto's greatest role.
Brava Fiorenza!!!!
Her diva behavior may put off some, but this woman loves to sing, she sings extremely well, and she has a beautiful voice. And her smile just wins me over!
I recommend Marian Anderson and Eleonora di Cisneros.
Canta senza risparmiarsi mai, è proprio vero . Da brivido.

Buon compleanno!
Un vrai bonheur ! Quelle maestria

Notwithstanding her current success, I really doubt that Jamie Burton will become a legend of our time....
Meravigliosa e regale!
Thank you very much Sir Gabba. If you please, I add this video in my playlist
¡¡¡MAGNIFICA, DE LAS MAS GRANDES, UNA MEZZO DE LAS DE RAZA!!! DE AL-

I’m here because of that one Friends scene where Phoebe gets mad at Ms. Pac-Man

Very powerful, brava Fiorenza though I admit she makes it sound more Verdi than Donizetti.

Oliviero De Fabritiis.
Is this the same production with Kraus?
Yes
She's certainly in love with herself.
One has to be, for this.
FOR ME SHE WAS SOPRANO
.En parte tenés razón en el siglo 19 no existía la mezzo era primera y segunda soprano,la mezzo es un invento del siglo XX

sound is from 1890, horrible!
Not as good as Eleonora Di Cisneros or Marian Anderson and the bad acting makes it worse.
Che noiosa cantante. Ogni volta canta uguale, senza vita, senza cuore. Come una machina!
