Nov 18, 2008 - I've always love her recording of this with Samuel Ramey from the 80's. Thanks for the clip!

Nov 18, 2008 - I found this very interesting. Anderson is still great...I think even today she would be the one that can sing Maometto...I don't see any other soprano that would fit this role..

Nov 18, 2008 - I agree, having seen Anderson in some very juicy roles I think she is more than up to it. I saw her in Anna Bolena a few years back and it was remarkable. I saw that she is doing it again soon, get tickets while you can!

Nov 18, 2008 - And the most remarkable: she still has the same sound and range... In other words: her technique must be as steady as it is reliable!

Nov 18, 2008 - Merveilleux !! une des plus grandes rossinienne incontestablement, les années ne semblent pas avoir de prise sur sa technique époustouflante.

Nov 18, 2008 - Is "very juicy" the appropriate word?. This is Juune Anderson and Rossini... Juicy??????
italianoperafan Says:
Nov 18, 2008 - Ces quelques mots sont explicites ... j'ajouterais seulement *une des plus grandes belliniennes".
