As this adventurous Italian bagpipe nut / coloratura-lover surfs down your channel to discover some possible arias I've never heard before, I found this. HOLY MAZZILLO!!! THis is a hard aria to find as far as wobble-free sopranos. But, Sarah Coburn, Abby Raiford, Emma Matthews, Natalie Logan and Madý Mesplé are four of my favorite versions besides yours. BTW, Mazzillo is the best Italian bagpipe maker in history, and yes, there are such instruments as Italian bagpipes. It's too bad you can't put links in comments, but if you type in "Mazzillo Italian bagpipes" and filter it by playlists, you definitely should get at least a result containing his recorded music. He was fortunate to be recorded, let alone in good stereo, tragicly unlike Antonio Stradivari. And he's still survived by his two stepsons, elderly mind you, but they still make the best Italian bagpipes ever. I need to hurry up and get one before they DIE! (You think the fact they were being born in 1963 makes them old? LOL). Also, just in case you haven't noticed, spelling DOES matter. "Mazilo", "Mazzilo" and "Mazillo" won't work. Think "Green glass door".

I looked up your other clips after watching Tales of Hoffmann. I knew what I could expect, you did not disappoint. I am now a firm fan of your exquisite voice. 🇦🇺
