In a world of operas written in Italian, French, and German, it's amazing that the closest thing to perfection comes from a Greek.

Not only the female voice of the century but a great actress. The eyes, the smile, a hand gesture could convey more meaning than most modern actresses. She could stand in silence mentally preparing for the role and there was electricity in the theatre. We bought seats but only used the edge. RIP La Divina 53 years later nobody has come near you.

The day my mother and grandmother died in a plane crash (I was but in my early teens studying for finals). Maria Callas's version of this song kept playing in a movie that was on in the background. While the memories of this song are bittersweet, I will say Las Callas's voice and stunning physical beauty were the only calming influences on such a dark day. I don't know if there is a heaven, but it almost felt like a voice from beyond. "Love is a gypsy's child that has never known a law."

Are you talking about the high pitched ringing sound? That's called squillo!! All of the best singers particularly soprano and tenors have this high pitched ring to their voice that is increased by proper opening of the voice and increased chest voice function, which causes more of the cords to be in vibration which causes a boost to the overtones of the voice, hence the intense ringing sound. The deep cavernous sound you hear is a CORRECTLY lowered larynx! The deeper and more relaxed inhale, the more the pharyngeal constricters relax, opening the throat, and the larynx naturally is pulled down deeply when we inhale deep. The breath coordination must be mastered in a way that would take too long to explain here The easy but incorrect way to lower the larynx is to pull the tongue back into the throat. This makes a dark woofy sound, but you lose the core off the voice and it doesn't project and becomes constricted. The correct way to lower the larynx are with specific muscles in the larynx that push it down. You can think of singing on a deep OO vowel, which will activate the muscles to pull the larynx down. It can go down pretty much as low as you can if you do it right. The semi hard part is keeping the tongue in a relaxed position while doing this. The tongue can never fall back. Instead, the back of the tongue must pull forward, away from the back of the throat, and inversely the tip or front of the tongue must pull back so as to counterbalance the push forward of the back of the tongue. The trick is get the back of the tongue away from the wall of the throat while balancing this forward push of the back of the tongue by pulling the the tip back. Doing it just right opens the voice up so it can be very powerful. Many times on the AH vowel people are inclined to subtly pull the tongue back but this is very bad. Anyway if you get the larynx down very low correctly without pulling the tongue back, you increase space in the pharynx to resonate, creating a more resonant and darker tone, but also increases the potential of the squillo, which is generated by a bigger chest voice function in a higher part of the range while the voice is free and resonating primarily from the pharynx
