    Bellini wrote Norma at age 30. It became his greatest achievement, and it is now regarded as an example of the supreme height of the bel canto tradition. The title role is generally considered one of the most difficult in the soprano repertoire. It includes the famous aria “Casta Diva”, which is often associated with opera legend Maria Callas.

    “In her debut as Norma, Dessì won the game… her Norma is vocally convincing and emotionally very touching.”
    - (Opera Chic)

    ”In Bologna [Kate Aldrich] is a beautifully burnished Adalgisa, perfectly holding her own opposite one of the great singers of today, Daniela Dessì (…) attacking her part with confidence, sporting a beautifully burnished voice.”
    - (Opera Chic)
