One of the greatest sopranos of the 20th century, she possesses a voice of remarkable beauty and of great range and flexibility, renowned for her flawless bel canto technique and unfailling musicianship. She is particularly admired for her famous interpretations of the works of Rossini, Bellini, and Donizetti.
Although best known for her bel canto roles, Caballé eventually sang over eighty operatic roles, from baroque opera to Verdi, Wagner, and Puccini, including the Marschallin in Richard Strauss's Der Rosenkavalier and the title role in Salome.
Caballé is also a noted recitalist, particularly of songs of her native Spain.
Her voice is noted for its purity, precise control, and power. She is admired less for her dramatic instincts and acting skills than for her superb technique, vocal shadings, and exquisite pianissimos.
The result of one of her brief excursions to the world of pop music, Caballé's duet with rock singer Freddie Mercury, Barcelona , was a hit single in 1987, accompanied by an album of the same name. The title track later became the anthem of the 1992 Summer Olympics which was hosted by the city, and appeared again in the pop music charts throughout Europe. Caballé also performed the song live, accompanied by a recording of the deceased Mercury, before the 1999 UEFA Champions League football final in Barcelona's Nou Camp stadium.
Caballé has dedicated herself to various charities. She is a UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador and she has established a foundation for needy children in Barcelona.
Caballé does not appear to have retired from the stage. She continues to assume new roles: in 2002, Catherine of Aragon in Saint-Saëns' Henri VIII; in 2004, the title role in Massenet's Cléopâtre, both at the Liceu. At the age of 73 (2006), she still maintains a busy schedule of recitals and concerts, mainly in Germany. And she is due to appear as The Duchess of Crackentorp in La fille du régiment at the Vienna State Opera in 2007.

Lyrics & English Translation
Afraid of me?
You had better be sure!
Ready is my defence.
His eyes are attracted by a stone
she wears on her right hand.
Wrapped in the dark
night, I am near you,
and you don't know it...
Wailing wind,
carry to him, mercifully, my sighs...
On the rosy wings of love,
go, pained sighs:
go to alleviate the sick mind
of the wretch that lies imprisoned...
Like a breeze of hope
linger in that room:
wake him up to remembrance,
to dreams of love!
Yet do not imprudently
reveal the woes of my heart!
Fernando Pinheiro
ASAS ROSADAS
"D'amor sull'ali rosee" - Il Trovatore, do compositor
Giuseppe Verdi, há suspiros e indagação do medo.
A noite escura envolve a mulher que chora com dor,
Sem ele saber. Será que sabia que tudo é arremedo?
Aurora raiando na madrugada, isto respira ao redor,
Trazendo lembrança de asas rosadas, memória grava
Sem que sinta o que está acontecendo de mal a pior.
D'amor sull'ali rosee, ária de Leonora, que amava.
No 4º ato, da ópera Il Trovatore, de Verdi, é um luar
Escondido nas sombras das nuvens indo ao redor,
Visão dos poetas cantando o amor deve continuar
Nas asas rosadas em que lirismo encontra o melhor
Abrigo. Após a pandemia na Terra o que é sofredor
Será transformado em dádiva agradecida ao Senhor. (*)

Two angels who met and sang together on earth, and who are now reunited were angels belong, in heaven. How priviledge we are to have lived in the same time and era of these two great performers!
...To those who, -like me-, are DEVOTED to FREDDIE, or are Freddie's fans..., I'm sure that in a way we are all here searching for him, trying to somehow get closer to him, to his life, to his memory...
No matter how much time has passed and will pass by, we'll ALWAYS carry on playing his music, visiting all the places related to him, reading about him, and listening to all his interviews over and over again.... He was far more than a singer, he was a visionary, an inspiration in so many ways, a legend.... and LEGENDS never die.
*Please if possible let me know how many of you visited this wonderful video due to Freddie...;) After all, as Freddie's fans, we are all like a huge family. :))
