Marth Mödl: Götterdämmerung: finale of Immolation Scene: Düsseldorf: 2/27/66

I am a staunch admirer of this magnificent artist, but her days of singing soprano roles lasted about 10 or so years. She began as a mezzo, then switched to soprano and returned to mezzo. Her voice here is unsteady, labored and she alters the music because she is no longer capable of singing the high notes as written. She was a marvelous Brunnhilde in the 1950s, as well as Isolde and Kundry.

Intensity,volume,interpretation ,colour,great actress, but unfortunately ,a very bottled & throaty technique ,that desrtroyed her voice ,provoking problems of pitch. If somebody is not aware of his vocal problems ,to change technique ,he has to face it
