    My absolute favorite singer of classical music. Even now after studying over 25 years (40 years music in total), she is one of the most musically gifted singers I've ever heard. And so intelligent when speaking.

    Her direction came out of the JOY of singing. Love hearing that. Thank You. 🙂

      Rare gem? She had the worst behavior towards her colleagues of an singer out there. She threw tantrums like a nasty child.

    Absolutely sublime 💎 Exquisite in every way 🌟 I have listened to this amazing voice for over 30 years and never get tired of it. I’ve had the pleasure of meeting her, if you will, at several CD signings back when Tower records was on Broadway in Lincoln Center. Thank you so much for sharing ❤

      I have them because back in "ancient" times I recorded them on VCR. I was finally able to convert them to digital and upload, thanks to the gizmo I borrowed from my local library! 😁

    What a shame. Throwing tantrums got her fired from the Met and all the other opera companies followed.

      Kathleen had problems with the Boston Symphony as well. She apparently developed an inflated ego that was self-destructive to her career.
      Marilyn Horne, who was perhaps the greatest voice in opera, was always a classy lady….and very considerate of her fellow musicians.
      Kathleen clearly wasn’t.

      The entire met ensemble weared TShirts with "we survied the Battle" after she was fired. THAT means something. She was really really nasty
