This is so lovely. Thanks to whomever is responsible for posting it. What a wonderful memory. I started to enjoy opera because of Ms. Sills and her appearances on t.v. talk shows in the 1970s. She was a great New Yorker and will be missed so very much. But what a life - truly a life well-lived. She gave so much to us.
She is not supposed to be Callas. Two totally different voices! Callas is Callas, ans Sills is Sills! She sounded so good when she retired, and even better for someone who had cancer. GIVE HER A BREAK! She is FAB!!!
I think the quality her instrument due to whatever reason began to lessen but only in her sustained phrases. I think she realized this and wanted to go out on top. A little bit wobble began to set in. But she is amazing none the less!!!
Thanks for keeping on. Operatubes subscription list has over 60 members uploading a dozen plus opera videos everyday. It's opera shock and awe. So much good stuff, never enough time.
VIVA LA SILLS !!! ...FOREVER.

R.I.P. Bubbles. You were the closest thing I had to a grandmother.

@ignoreitor Bartoli is okay, but she's no Beverly Sills.
Sills is a lovely Rosina, but she is no Callas!
