I saw Diana Soviero when she substituted for Teresa Stratas in Suor Angelica at the Met. It was around this same time as this video. There was not a dry eye in the house that night. A riveting performance that I count as one of the most memorable I've ever seen.
This so beautiful and heartbreaking. Miss Soviero's performance is gorgeously sung, so moving in its simplicity, and acting. This is one of the finest Suor Anjelica's I've ever heard.
Brava!! Excellent performance!! Beautifully sensitive and expressive contrast and dynamics throughout!! I loved it from start to finish. And the last note on this aria is ALWAYS the icing on the cake for me. She executed it FLAWLESSLY all the way to the end!! Again, Brava!!
THIS IS THE ONE I SAW ON SPANNISH TELEVISION WHEN I WAS LIVING IN BARCELONA STUDYING WITH TATIANA MEMORY I AND JUAN ONCINA......ONE LONELY NIGHT I SAW THIS...AND BY THE END I WAS INCONSOLABLE!
Ok. You are right .I did not want to write out the world wooble. Scotto was a most talented and expressive soprano. But after mid seventies her phrasing had an uncontrolled wooble in full voiced note attacks. And many nights , live at the MET, was a little more than disturbing.
No sabe cómo le agradezco este recuerdo de Diana Soviero, una de las mejores sopranos que pasaron por Madrid... y creo que sólo volvió para una Traviata con Araiza!
Julio Gonzalez Campayo -- We used to listen to the old vinyl recording of Tebaldi, 55 years ago in Jamaica, Queens, New York City.....but I think Soviero's performance is superior. Greetings from San Agustinillo, Oaxaca !
SUOR ANGELICA Ao entardecer no convento, o sino toca na hora da Ave-Maria, Dentro da capela, as freiras estão cantando em coro. Na saída, A Irmã Monitora instrui suas confreiras as preces em harmonia. Suor Angelica dedica-se ao cultivo de ervas. Esqueceu a caída, No conceito mundano da época, por ter concebido um filho Sem estar casada. Hoje, em dia, não há mais o filho ilegítimo, Faz um unguento e dá a confreira que está doente, sem brilho No rosto, sabendo que todos buscam ter o direito legítimo De ser feliz, sem necessidade de colocar a água fria em cima Da sepultura da confreira que morreu no convento. Ao vento, Ela disse: quem morreu não tem a sede, tem Deus na estima. Tendo convivido com as irmãs do convento a vida abastecida De muitas preces, louvores e recreações no pátio do convento, O céu que vivenciou em vida, sente-se a Deus agradecida.

My God, to this day this is one of the all time greatest performances I’ve ever heard.
The one from the Met in 1989 was even better! Such an incredible singing actress!
100 anni con Puccini, la sua musica, la sua poesia, sei con lui e le sue melodie immortali
Grazie maestro.
Beautifully sung by this singer with an amazing voice. She put everything she has in this aria. It’s full of emotion.
Singing as it used to be and was meant to be. BRAVA
I saw her perform this role in Dallas. Absolutely blew me away. She got a huge ovation at the end. Will never forget it.
Absolutely beautiful. It's as if Freni and Scotto were combined in one voice.
And kabaivanska !
and gencer.
Bravo bravo. Bravo
And the acting of La Divina.
Absolutely

Gut wrenching performance by a much under-appreciated artist.
Great voice great acting. Ranks with the best. Take out your handkerchiefs!!

Diana, so so gorgeous!!!!!!!!
Omg! One can not only hear also see the Heavens!
Finalmente una bella mezza voce finale che dà pregio a tutta la romanza
bravissima non ti conoscevo adesso ti seguirò
Sin duda la mejor interpretación en vivo (y no se si también grabada) de este rol.
Diana Soviero está increíble.
Parece que TODO sucede de VERDAD.
❤

SIMPLY GREAT PERFORMANCE IN THIS MASTERPIECE
This woman has given so much over the years. She truly is one of my desert island sopranos.
Grande!!!
Meravigliosa❤
She must have admired Scotto...a LOT!
And Scotto admired her vibratoless voice.
@@abelbilbao1735 vibratoless? You're mistaken. Plenty of vibrato. It's not wobbly. But a very healthy vibration of the sound
Ok. You are right .I did not want to write out the world wooble.
Scotto was a most talented and expressive soprano. But after mid seventies her phrasing had an uncontrolled wooble in full voiced note attacks. And many nights , live at the MET, was a little more than disturbing.
A remarkable and moving voice.
Masterpiece
There is not sufficient language to describe this feat of artistry.

Verismo at its finest.
¡Fantástica! ❤❤❤
This is the proper ending that Puccini intended!
SUOR ANGELICA
Ao entardecer no convento, o sino toca na hora da Ave-Maria,
Dentro da capela, as freiras estão cantando em coro. Na saída,
A Irmã Monitora instrui suas confreiras as preces em harmonia.
Suor Angelica dedica-se ao cultivo de ervas. Esqueceu a caída,
No conceito mundano da época, por ter concebido um filho
Sem estar casada. Hoje, em dia, não há mais o filho ilegítimo,
Faz um unguento e dá a confreira que está doente, sem brilho
No rosto, sabendo que todos buscam ter o direito legítimo
De ser feliz, sem necessidade de colocar a água fria em cima
Da sepultura da confreira que morreu no convento. Ao vento,
Ela disse: quem morreu não tem a sede, tem Deus na estima.
Tendo convivido com as irmãs do convento a vida abastecida
De muitas preces, louvores e recreações no pátio do convento,
O céu que vivenciou em vida, sente-se a Deus agradecida. (*)
