thats what Butterfly is supposed to do... break your Heart... Freni is Beautiful indeed but what Christa does here: 6:12 ... it is unbelievable

But isn't Freni who sings that part at 6:12? It sounds like her and also in the libretto those words are assigned to Butterfly

So incredibly poignant... the stillness of the voice, the control. Ludwig was a phenomenon.

I haven't seen this in a long time. Long enough to have forgotten its Ludwig who performed this role. What a joy.

Due sublime e divine interprete, Mirella Freni e Christa Ludwig. Un'edizione stupenda della Madame Buttetfly.

Christa is a Goddess... quite close to Callas, that is why she was being Worshiped by the great conductors... her range was Unbelievable all the way from contralto low to high D6.. but above all the Musicianship
