Cher public, you have striven valiantly but no one of you has managed to accomplish what was most likely an impossible task: the identification of 14 singers of Violetta in only a few notes. As a group mind, though, you came awfully close. And so, to put an end to this particular source of stress, La Cieca now reveals the mystery voices in this clip:

  1. Beverly Sills
  2. Maria Callas
  3. Pilar Lorengar
  4. Magda Olivero
  5. Joan Sutherland
  6. Renata Scotto
  7. Renée Fleming
  8. Lily Pons
  9. Anna Tomowa-Sintow
  10. Natalie Dessay
  11. Virginia Zeani
  12. Cheryl Studer
  13. Kiri te Kanawa
  14. Amelita Galli-Curci

    Thank you, La Cieca, for the title of this post. Schipa’s rendition of that song is one of my dearest childhood memories (no, I’m not THAT old, but my mother used to play it all the time). It is La Cieca in this case who is graziosa.

    This is off topic – but whatever happened to coloraturafans great videos on youtube – such a shame after all his hard work.I especially miss those wonderful Norma clips with Elinor Ross and his competitions – I was addicted to them.Hope he starts reposting again soon
