The "Una voce poco fa" Contest - Lily Pons

Not many arias become legendary: "Di quella pira", "Largo al factorium", "Sempre libera", "La donna e mobile", "Laschia ch'io pianga" are only a few examples. Rossini's most famous piece for the human voice surely was "Una voce poco fa". The great "divalegacy.com" website lists about 30 versions of the aria, but the list goes on forever, so famous the song has become. Recently I have checked my opera collection and found out that I have 20+ versions of the air, so I decided that it was high time I hosted a contest/survey. I give you ten renditions of the aria, and you, the viewer, vote (the system is quite simple: the marks range from 1 to 5; there are two categories: singing/characterization; so your mark (+ comment :-) ) should look like this: */*). Next - the cute Lily Pons.P.S. I decided to put up only some of the renditions, I will try to download more versions in the next month.

Muy bella voz, sí señores.

I'm an 18 year old singer learning this song so i'm not qualified to comment, but out of personal taste I didn't like this recording. I've listened to some other singers and Pons makes it sound so laboured because she is letting so much air escape.

I don't know about that. It is usually the reedy little chorister who tells us where Caruso and co. went wrong... hee hee
For those considering buying a new vehicle, don't forget to check out the new 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser. Great for adventures off road, just for cruising around town, or running to the store.

The new 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser seats five and comes in two-tone with a Voodoo Blue, Titanium Metallic, Black Diamond, Sun Fusion, Sandstorm or Brick body color and White top. The interior fabric color is Dark Charcoal, while the dash, center instrument panel trim and the door inserts match the body.
