Leontyne Price, for your Saturday opera fix

[BeyondGeography]

Price, one of the greatest sopranos ever, is still with us; she turned 91 last month. Here’s the full last scene from Aida, her signature role, filmed in 1985, the year she retired:

1. She's amazing.

I had forgotten about her. Glad to hear she's still alive.

2. She has a remarkable instrument.

Thanks for this clip, she's a great Aida.

3. My pleasure

If you haven't already seen it, she's a major part of The Opera House, PBS' fantastic documentary on the building of the Met and Lincoln Center.

4. Thank you.

I didn't know that, I'll watch the video later today.
