Unusual Case


Cecilia Bartoli sings passages faster

Than anyone else's, without a disaster,

And this is the reason that Bartoli can

Sings repertoire written for Malibran,

And tackles with fervor the fire and smoke

Of music composed in the High Baroque,

And does it all in (and this is strange),

Both the soprano and alto and range.
