I simply don't have the words to describe such beauty.

A me piace tanto

Ghena's singing is breathtaking, whenever she sings she sounds so effortless, still giving an avalanche of sound. This rendition is one more example of her unique voice - in the middle range where most of sopranos push their larynx to the limit to give big dark sound, she hardly opens her mouth in such a natural way and gives sound bigger than a hall, from outside it looks so easy as she would speak not sing.

[@mariobarbov9605]

Profoundly true as authentic singing is an artistic way of speaking! The question that remains is how she managed to do it AFTER 30 YEARS of singing!

[@ALEXISVASSILIEV]

No commente... Éternité! Merci per sempre pour cet Art!

[@laurentiuion832]

What a Diva!

[@huskytail]

This just makes me cry from the power of the emotion.

[@orion8835]

Glorious. Ghena only became firmer and stronger as she got older.

[@Tenortalker]

When will we hear her like again? Such a generous dramatic soprano. The great Ghena Dimitrova.

[@gaddovarzi6980]

Brani di questo livello furono i primi segni inequivocabili che un genio assoluto della lirica post-verdiana era nato.

[@user-ug4bm7qe5q]

И като се има в предвид, че когато изпълнява това е на 57 години, нека някой каже че няма гласови възможности и убийствен талант....... и ще го обявя за пълен идиот!!! Наистина една от най-великите оперни певици..... за всички времена!!! Ние българите можем само и единствено като признателност да се гордеем и помним вечно Гена....... защото тя се отдаде до последната си клетка на това велико изкуство наречено ОПЕРА.

[@aprendizercomygor]

It's amazing how much expressiveness and drama she can convey through her voice alone (and this is in her declining years!), even if her acting skills with her face and gestures are not particularly excellent. It's all in her voice and powerfully transmitted through the nuances as well as the power of her singing. She was a bit like Sutherland, and Tebaldi in that regard, the singing carries a lot of feeling, you just have to open your ears to be moved by the emotion that is built into the music and flows from the voice.

Straripante e commovente drammaticità! Cosa mai aveva in mente il genio indiscutibile dentro l'anima del grande Giacomo Puccini?...

Adorola sig Dimitrova,che nel brano di Puccini ha la giusta vocalita' ,ma anche se la Netrebko ha affrontato un repertorio forte a me faceva venire i brividi

[@LeonidRozumenko]

Dear Ghena Dimitrova, your performance of Sola, perduta, abbandonata is the most incredible among all others, I ever heard!

[@user-ug4bm7qe5q]

Because he sings it with his whole soul, as well as everything else .... For her, opera was a temple and a philosophy of life, obviously not by chance!

[@judyjones2475]

I still prefer Montserrats version❤

Что случилось с миром? Если послушать сегодня кто поёт в опере,такое впечатление,что туда определили весь дом инвалидов. Что внешне что вокально. Куда подевались такие певцы? Им просто нет места среди бездарностей,которые прут из всех щелей.
