| Thanks. I do believe Callas did perform in the comic operas "Il Turco in Italia" and possibly Norina in "Don Pasquale" live, or at least the aria of the latter. I find her recording of "Barber" quite charming and funny, especially the way she says the word "Ma" in "Un voce poco fa". But yes, she was not known generally for her comedic performances. She did have a sense of humor though. She spoke English, Greek, French and Italian, and when asked what language she counts in, she replied "I count in dollars!" |
