A favorite mezzo performance from Mr. Portafiori

I just loved her voice. To me, she was exiting and a little over the top. I will never forget a Carnegie Hall concert where for one of her encores she sang “O don fatale.” I was blown away. Her voice was so powerful and intense. I saw her in many roles, but not as Eboli.
