-From Roberto AZZALI:
When i hear people say that Maria Callas had a poor technique, i do get the shivers up my spine ! You’ve got to be completely deaf. Her repertory spans over 3 centuries of the greatest musical production ever... there was not a single trick or firework she could not perform: appoggiatura, acciaccatura, picchettato, messa di voce, glissando (on eflats in alto)... her breath was fully and perfectly sustained, her scales (ascending, descending, diatoniques and so forth) were absolutely amazingly perfect. She performed every single note which was written in the score and with the perfect tempo and pitch. And she never tricked, she always sang in the original key.
Therefore, whether you like it or not, in spite of your respectable taste, Maria Callas was the greatest soprano of all time. And to this day, she is the one who has sold the most records (and still is) and all the greatest sopranos ever since, before they approach
