Love her speaking voice

[@-blythe2986]

My goodness how lucky these students were.

[@tutankamon1975]

Everything in Callas sound so real... even teaching...

[@dawnadriennetaylor970]

What absolute heaven on earth to hear Callas sing this whilst teaching. Why would a student select this aria when she can't trill? Why, also, ask a question then keep on talking instead of waiting and listening intently to the wisdom?

Callas sounds spectacular here

[@marlenehartley7742]

Gives me chills hearing Callas singing this. She brings life to everything she sings.

[@martinliebig8677]

My God! Callas voice is apocalyptic...

[@janezamudio4940]

I would like to know how a woman whose voice is supposedly shot at this point can still sound so damn spectacular....

[@tutankamon1975]

Listening Callas singing La altra note in this stage of his career is a revelation... here sings much better than 73... but there are some recordings from 73 with Distefao and an orquestra in which she sounds very beautiful but it seems she change her techique, whith a voice more "white" and sometimes whith an ethereal quality... Callas voice was the ultimate mistery.

Quando canta ed interpreta Maria la Terra si dischiude e respira di nuove voluttà!

I love how Callas is portrayed in the play “Master Class.” She comes across as “mean,” yet you can hear her deep care and concern for both the music and the student. She sounds like she is constantly contradicting herself, yet everything she says is right! The real Maria Callas in this video actually sounds more tolerant, less intimidating.

[@crazyorganist1609]

Holy hell even in the 70s she still had full control of her voice. That student was full of herself. . Love Callas's reply when she says "I know"

[@artdanks4846]

So much for the idea that Callas lost her voice! This proves she didn't at all!

[@casimiralexander]

Still Stupendous! Callas! Oh! Only Callas! Gorgeous! So emotionally true! The ego and arrogance of these students is astounding... My God! Shameful.

[@TulioHav]

Era tan maravillosamente musical...!!!

Old italian masters used to say: " Listen and imitate"...

Cette Master Class illustre magnifiquement le génie de Maria Callas.
