I think this excellent Decca recording a great example of her capabilities, make sure you listen to the end. YouTube - Joan Sutherland-Verdi-I Vespri Siciliani-Bolero:-"Merci, diletti amiche" |

I recorded and provided sound reinforcement for an on-stage interview with her at Wigmore Hall in the late 1990's. With typical modesty she asked that the PA should be well turned up as "I may have a good singing voice but I don't think my speaking voice is very good". A charming lady.
