    Verdi's music, to me, captured the sweetness, and the agony, of the human experience better than anyone's. No one emoted through the music with more conviction and commitment better than Verrett. The combination of Verdi and Verrett was an enthralling tapestry of sound and emotion that unfolded like a supernatural world. Verrett will always be one of my favorite sopranos.

Stampa prona ad esaltare in maniera sconsiderata (financo il Manifesto!), solito puttanaio alla prima, libretto fatto a pezzi, cantanti approssimativi, allestimento sgraziato, forzato. E protagonisti che rispondono piccati alle meritate critiche. Non è nemmeno una messinscena "scandalo", come si sarebbe detto un tempo, è semplicemente un orrore, reso ancora più orrendo dagli interventi digitali televisivi. Dicono che solo così il melodramma sopravviverà in teatro. Ma l'impressione è che sia già crepato.

      As others note here, this is not a "coloratura" role. It is a dramatic soprano role with coloratura demands and most lyric and light coloraturas avoid this like the plague, as they should or they harm their voice. Sutherland could have been a great Lady Macbeth but it would have revealed what a third rate conductor Bonynge actually was if she had done it. He prevented her from singing a number of roles which she could have made a great mark on because of this, although she always said it was "because they want me to sing those loony ladies." When lyric coloraturas take this role on [thing Scotto] they generally do it late or they leave it after very few performances. Nilsson was a good Lady Macbeth because she was a great musician but her technique led to a little faking in the fast, complex parts.
