On Friday, Deceptive Cadence's Tom Huizenga shared a post entitled "Leontyne Price At 90: The Voice We Still Love To Talk About." Vanishing gratefully down that rabbit hole, I eventually ended up at the video below. Talk about balm for the soul. (And MAN, she's got a set of pipes on her, doesn't she?)
They also tell me that Price's great voice continues to ring out. Yes, at 90, she still sings — but now just for her own enjoyment.
