Well this woman is fantastic....she is so simple and comes from such a simple italian family...she is a diva but she is as modest as ur next door woman...and i seriously doubt if there are that many singers that are half as enthusiastic as she is when she sings. You can clearly see the joy in her eyes.
I remember this concert well (and have my own private off-the-air video). This was a PBS telecast - Live from Carnegie Hall series. She also sang the complete Mozart Exultate (with the famous Alleluia). Her tackling of Sonnambula was a real surprise (and a bit controversial) than as now.
I love this. Her mom was in the audience if i remember right. I couldn't imagine having to sing like this, infront of so many people...including my mom lol Brava~!
i'm so glad this performance was reposted...i've been begging for it's return...i agree, compared to recording which is good but very effected and ornamented, this recital display seems a lot more meater and passionate.....i absolutely love it....
I'm making amends for my former dislike of Bartoli. She's an incredible musician and a truly great singer. Her vocal category? Range does not determine whether one is mezzo or soprano. The color of her voice is amber and lush. Call her whatever you decide, This rendition is fabulous.
But shes defenitely one of the best singers of the last 25 years! And I like thois version more than her version on MARIA. In this she sings portamenti -which this music need - and so- after all- BRAVA SANTA CECILIA !(I hope both Comments will be published!)
A small voice or the big one? Doesn`t sound like a small voice to me :-) However, I`m completely lack of any musical education...Hope that`s not the reason I like her voice so much?
was this really the original version composed for Pasta? i know it's not supposed to be mezzo-y, but it is rather high, and the Ah non giunge was lowered back to the "original" when Bartoli sang it.

greatest MEZZO SOPRANO???? in the world? today? Oh, boy.... nice try with Amina, by the way. My expectations were low, and I was surprised. Pity she did not try herself in Verdi's Ulrica... :-)

absolutely fabulous --BARTOLI
I can remember watching this when it was new. Gee, I still love it.
Bravissima, Cecilia!!! What an adrenaline!!!
Brava Bartoli: She sings always with such amazing agility, grace always, "con mosso," richly emotive.

This is so beautiful and a great Mezzo Soprano--please IGNORE the IGNORANT CRITICS
