 | Maria Callas (Greek: Μαρία Κάλλας) (December 2, 1923 - September 16, 1977) was an American-born Greek soprano and one of the most renowned opera singers of the 20th century. She combined an impressive bel canto technique, a wide-ranging voice and great dramatic gifts. An extremely versatile singer, her repertoire ranged from classical opera seria to the bel canto operas of Donizetti, Bellini and Rossini; further, to the works of Verdi and Puccini; and, in her early career, to the music dramas of Wagner. Her remarkable musical and dramatic talents led to her being hailed as La Divina... en.wikipedia.org Lyrics & English Translation They are both asleep. They will not see The hand which strikes them. No remorse O my heart; They must not live. Anguish here ? in Rome, Abuse far worse than anguish? Slaves of a stepmother. Ah no, never! They must die. I cannot go nearer: A chill seizes me, my hair Stands with fright. To kill my children! Tender babies, until now The joy of my life? They, in whose smile I seemed to see Heaven's pardon, Can I kill them? What guilt have they? They are the children of Pollione That is their crime! For me, they have already died; Let them die for him, too. May his anguish be greater than any other. Strike! Ah no! They are my children, mine! Oh, Clotilde! Come - quickly!
