Beverly Sills - Manon Death Scene

Unbelievably moving! Her "crying" singing is one of her best qualities. Such depth of interpretation is something we don't see every day. And her vocal performance is still excellent, considering this 1977 video was made when her prime had alreary finished...

She was just sensational when singing at Teatro Colon in Buenos Aires long ago: Cleopatra, Manon, Lucia. You´ll be always remembered. God save the Queen "Bubbles"!

Beverly will be missed. I love this scene it's sad and so touching.

Me, too. She'll be my goddess for all of time.

Goodbye dear Beverly. I will miss you so and thank you for everything.

Henry Price...I always liked that voice. This was one of the first operas I ever saw, on an old VHS that my dad bought at a garage sale because he knew I liked music. Sills is the one who got me hooked on opera.

She was a Goddess !! Thank You for your fantastic Generosity !!

You will be missed, Bubbles!

Rest in Peace to a wonderful lady. I met Ms. Sills in my role as meeting planner/guest speaker handler. What a privilege. She was as kind and unaffected as she could be. The highlight of my career!

Rest in Peace, our Queen of Opera....

and the tenor? who is that wonder?

I'm in love with her.

Absolutely Stunning! What an ending! Small wonder she earned 3 names from La Scala.... La Phenomena Viva!
