Carol was a marvellous singer, highly intelligent, extremely musical and blessed with a magnificent and individual voice. And what a personality 💗
Remarkable onstage and off!
One of the greatest Tosca’s of her generation …perhaps any generation. I heard her sing it with the late, and sorely missed Pavarotti at The Met as a kid … never forgot that astounding performance .
A sensational artist, and a superb interviewer!
Oh, I want to meet Ms. Vaness.
very insightful
It would be wonderful if you could interview Johanna Meier. I heard her sing Norma and Seiglinde. Hopefully you can get her to do an interview
She is the most wonderful lady - a heart of gold and so modest!
You should interview the sensational Nadine Sierra!
Carol Vaness: “I could never sing [Donna Anna]!” Also Carol Vaness: Becomes one of the leading Donna Anna interpreters of her generation. 😂
