This, young singers, is how you get to sound at age 53-steady, dead-center pitched, shimmering, gorgeous, EFFORTLESS-when you learn how to sing in a functionally correct manner at an early age, and then stay on track as you take good care of your mind and body. The great lady will be 96 in February of 2023. She is a national treasure.
She is responsible for my love for opera. When I am hearing her, it is pretty obvious why. She is the owner of the most beautiful soprano voice I have ever heard. I wrote my story already many times. I heard her singing "Tacea la Notte Placida, Verdi" almost forty years ago on the Russian LP record. Her voice began to rise, spilling around me touching directly my soul. "She is fantastic. Who is she? Leontyne Price" Only she can sing it like this. Do you hear a voice of an angel? Yes, I hear the angel´s voice. She is a black lady, her name is Leontyne Price - the singing Goddess.

Jiri- I completely second all you wrote. She is a singular sensation.💜🙌💜
Why isn't she crowned the world's Queen of Opera? Good grief, what an instrument!
Another superlative was given to Marian Anderson. Arturo Toscaninni said of her "A voice like hers comes once in a hundred years."
She is the queen of the opera and also the queen of my heart and soul.
Thank you for posting. The great Itzhak Perlman as well. His violin playing sings right along with her. 💖
The sublime pleasure of hearing music on two Stradivari played by a duo of unrivaled masters! Bravi!!!
Sublime.❤️
Maravilhosa, grande diva.
JESUS! MY GOD! (and I'm an atheist!)
