In 2003, after a career spanning nearly forty years, Julia Varady discreetly retired from the public stage. She now dedicates her time to teaching. While for most great singers the transition from performing to teaching generally follows signs of vocal deterioration, Julia Varady's voice has never been so dazzling. She constantly sings in full voice during her classes, with the same intensity and generosity of spirit that made her one of the very finest lyric sopranos of our time. BONUS: The complete master class with Julia Varady. Selections from: Rossini's II barbiere di Siviglia, (Una voce poco fa) ; Ponchielli's La Gioconda, (Stella de l marinar!) ; Bizet's Carmen, (Habanera: l'amour est un oiseau rebelle) ; Massenet's Werther, (Werther! Werther) ; Mozart's La clemenza di Tito, (No. 19, Aria Deh per questa istante solo), and Cosi fan tutte, (Come scoglio) ; Weber's Der Freischutz, (Wie nahte mir der Schlummer) ; Verdi's Nabucco (Oh, dischiuso e il firmamento!).
