Leontyne Price, Barber Death of Cleopatra, 1985

[@dantewalston2755]

This is technique, elegance, and grace on full display. Leontyne beyond her vocal prime still delivers this aria better than most sopranos can touch today. Brava

After 30 years, the voice remained singularly fresh and legendarily beautiful.

Amazing !! ok very slight wobble but that is minimal as many much younger singers already have that. What power and beauty of tone! She is still alive at 97!

Well.... her middle was notn fresh ....but her top notes sure are! For many years she sang unbelievably well...always with plenty of emotion....this is very difficult music to sing. ...it takes an unusually fine musician to pull it off.. Ms. Price understands the music and emotes it very well.... almost unearthly....
