Elisabeth is such an intelligent person, singer and actress. Her language abilities are legendary. Chapeau for this true artist! And thanks for this posting :)
+pplayer666 Yes, indeed: Czech and French. And native speakers lauded always her level and use of those six different languages nearby without accent. That´s quite exceptional, don´t you think?
+pplayer666 Oh yes, that is a wonderful and intensive recording. I´m an admirer of her Jenufa under Mackerras, but who´s not. Her artistry was so unobtrusive and candid. Great woman, intelligent and with fine sense of humor. Always in memory.
@@Sir.LarselotIhre Kata und Emila Marty sind ebenfalls wundervoll. Es gibt Mitschnitte von der BBC mit Liederabenden...zum Niederknien. Eine grossartige Künstlerin!!
I saw her as Jenůfa to the Kostelnička of Sena Jurinac at San Francisco, 1980. Both ladies were superb. It was an unforgettable night in the theatre.

lassisimo absolutely. In my opinion she was truly phenomenal. Can't stop listening to her singing Rach romances.

Such a bright, intelligent and brilliant lady, and one of a very few that were recognized as such in her own country. Sadly missed!
Il tabarro is just amazing 🤩
Wow
"Singe ich schon so schlecht, daß ich Intendant werden soll?"- Göttlich!
Noch ein göttlicher Spruch: "Ihr Verhältnis zur Presse?" - "Einseitig."
