Description:
This 1959 concert features Callas just a year before her voice began to fade, yet her remarkable vocal talent remains evident. The program ranges from weighty dramatic roles like Lady Macbeth and Elisabetta, to agile coloratura such as Rosina, and dramatic roles demanding agility like Imogene and Gulia. Her phrasing and legato are exceptional, and she commands each aria with masterful artistry. "Tu che invoco" unfolds as a torrent of dramatic phrases in the style of classical opera, while Lady Macbeth is portrayed with a chilling darkness, though she avoids reaching the high C. Her Rosina is bright and effortless in the coloratura, sounding completely natural, and Elisabetta's aria creates a timeless, almost spiritual atmosphere. Finally, her performance of the Mad Scene from Pirata showcases her full range as both an actress and a bel canto singer.
