Wilhelmenia Fernandez Smith/DIVA [1981] - Aria From Catalani's LA WALLY

[sansradio]

Nice to hear there are a few of us opera fans on here. I might add
I've been lucky enough to see several in person....Leontyne Price,
Jesse Norman, Marilyn Horne, Fredericka Von Stada, Roberta Peters, Susan Graham and Joan Sutherland. Would have loved to have seen Wilhelmenia in person. Got to meet all in person after their concerts except Sutherland, in 'Norma', in Detroit. Leontyne was a hoot with personality that shown like the sun!
I might add that Barbara Hendricks is one of my all time favorites.
Barbara has lived in Europe for many years now. Unfortunately, I never got to see her perform live. Barbara is very much a humanitarian. Lots of admiration for this lady.

Ah, Miss Battles. The Supremes didn't have all the drama!
