This is where the value of Price artistry and vocal gifts outdistance her colleagues. When Verdi requires "singing" and impeccable musicianship, she is always able to deliver. The screamers are excruciating in a piece as subtle as this or 'O patria mia.' Price's voice and singing here is like a Stradivarius cello played by the likes of Rostropovich or Casals. Just incomparably singular and beautiful.

Brava quasi quanto la Callas!
Voluptuous singing!
