30 day opera challenge
Day 14 - Most beautiful female operatic voice - Joan Sutherland
Sometimes I think Joan’s voice is a figment of my imagination - was there really a singer who could rattle off a perfect cadenza and seconds later deliver an earth-shattering high note like she could? I thoroughly dislike it when people complain about her diction (which isn’t nearly as bad as people think) or her acting - I’ll admit she wasn’t exactly Callas but who cares because HAVE YOU HEARD HER VOICE

I will always love this woman and her gorgeous voice.
I’m not the biggest Sutherland fan, but those are some awesome gifs. Also, girl had crazy good technique. Watch. These....
I absolutely adore Joan Sutherland.
