This is a list of just some of the opera arias sung by the wonderful American black female soprano Leontyne Price.

Studio recording,1960. Of the many many versions of this Puccini aria "Chi il bel sogno di Doretta " from his opera La Rondine, I think Price's effort to be the sweetest and purist one. Her clarity of voice, and smoothness of transition, make for me the foremost offering of this short, but beautiful aria.
