Montserrat loved to laugh. One night in a recital at the ROH in 1981 some people started to take pictures with their cameras and flashes. She just said very nicely please no " flasher". When she realised what she had said well she just could not stop laughing and the entire audience joined her . It must of lasted for a good 10 minutes. It is one of the most wonderful memory I have of her. Not only was she of the the greatest soprano of the 20th century

It looks like Montserrat is even more famous now than when she was alive. And she is postomously attracting young crowds to classical music. Amazing, but wonderful.

There will never be another like this Montserrat!

Oh I do love it when she giggles!!! Those uncontrollable giggles are just amazing!

She was the most darling lady!

And she was so beautiful.....❤.......so great.............so funny,so lovley and so adorable!!!!!!😚😚😚😚😚😚😚😚😚Montserrats voice like diamonds with 💎💎💎💎💎💎Billion notes in her head🎼🎵🎶🎼🎵🎶🎼🎵🎶🎼🎵🎶

Montserrat had the talent to make people happy!!!!!!!👍👍😍😍😘😘When she laughs......you have to laugh !!!!!!😘😘😘👍❤

I just love her giggling and her smile! What a wunderful person💖 I miss her so much!

Last time I went to Barcelona I searched for her grave and some nice elderly women helped me even thought there was a funeral going on, it's a nice story

That was so much fun. Always with the incredible skill, and the voice, of course, but a great sense of humour very much in the mix.

she looks, sounds, and is so incredibly sweet. she seems like a ccjoy to just be around.

Beautiful woman, loved her sense of humor.

A great Lady!

I love her laugh..............our only Montserrat...❤❤❤❤❤👍👍👍

I am overwhelmed.........thank you!!!! !I love this woman......she was fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😘😘😘❤❤❤

Okay - I still love La Stupenda but I think I have found my favourite soprano ever. Just like Pavarotti will always hold the very special place in my heart (God i miss him...) - I'm sure that nobody will ever top Caballé for me. These two...I pray I meet them in heaven

Montserrat is always in my heart!!!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤🤘🤘🤘🤘She was really lovley and funny!!!💋💋💋💋💋👍👍👍👍She always shine💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥

Beloved lady of Spain.

Children loves them - too!!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤And Montserrat loved football!!!!!!!!⚽️⚽️COOL!!!!!!!!👀🤣Her fans thougt it was wonderful!!!!After singing.....she goes to a football match!!!!!!! !2002👏👏👏

For all the incredible (literally) vocal and musical things she accomplished, many fans travelled the world to hear her. And, those lucky enough to get the opportunity to meet their great idol in person usually entered her presence with the awe of approaching a (their) true goddess. Invariably after meeting her and succumbing to her charms and effervescent laughter, and recognizing the "person" they had just met, they would leave with that memory overwriting their previous expectations. So strong was her personality that those who knew her would say: "She ALSO sings !"

The Verdi Requiem hehehehe it is actually the hardest note to pick out of thin air!

Adorabile donna e soprano assoluto ❤❤❤

I love to see her funny side!

I love her ❤

La Superba with a blonde wig and giggling. ❤

The 'windy Il Trovatore rehearsal' is just perfect and adorable relief of intolerable breezes as Monserrat Caballe style - poise and fun. 🌹♥️

La amé!!! Hasta su risa era música pura

What students need to learn from these clips is that artists from her era and before were able to converse in many languages. Caballe is heard here speaking Spanish, German, Italian, French, and English. Schools pump out singers with basic diction understanding of the languages they are singing in, yet are headed for a hard lesson when they arrive in Europe and expect a translator to be present.

I LOVE THAT........and Montserrat for ever!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Present of heaven!!!!!!!!!! ✈✈✈🛬🛬She sings at the military training area!!!!😂!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

La superba

I have to laugh...this wig...🤣🤣🤣🤣..its so funny.......❤...Montserrat with blond hairs as Madame Krakentorp !!!!!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 = g' Schätzli in Vienna 2007)Vienna State Opera !!!!!The audience was delighted!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤They called===="Montserrat wir lieben Dich!!!!!(Montserrat we love you) "It was Montserrats74 . birthday on stage!!!!!!!!!

That was so much fun - thank you! I’d love to see translations of what she’s saying/singing &/or the names of the operas/arias/lieder she’s singing if you have a chance to put them in the description of the video - many thanks again! ~KP
