Simionato was much admired for vibrant singing, both in dramatic roles and comic ones.

Giulietta Simionato in an aria from Samson et Dalila, in Opera Fanatic.
(Simionato is the Mamma Lucia.) In 1935, after the death of her mother, she became schizophrenic and, in 1937, tried to throw herself into the orchestra pit during a performance.
Simionato declared she wouldn’t accept an invitation from The Bavarian State Opera to attend a screening of Opera Fanatic unless the opera company un-invited Gencer and Barbieri.

 Powell's Books - Giulietta Simionato: How Cinderella Became Queen by Jean-Jacques Hanine Roussel
Giulietta Simionato, the great Italian mezzo-soprano, was indeed a real-life Cinderella long before she performed the role in Rossini's opera.
Simionato's voice was unique, and not only for the control which enabled her to produce right notes and styles: she imbued each of her roles with a distinct personality.
This book is meant to celebrate Giulietta Simionato's achievement — to celebrate her very existence in our midst — but it might be something more.

In the phrase: "M'avrai ma freddo esanime spoglia" she sounds like the heaviest contralto only after a few second to start a coloratura-phrasing the likes of which we have never heard...

 Amazon.com: Verdi: Il Trovatore: Music   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
You would have quite hard a time then trying to find a tenor better suited than Franco Corelli to sing the part of Manrico, la Simionato would spring to anyone's mind as the logical choice for Azucena, and Bastianini sung the Count so well he could hardly be surpassed, even by Gobbi.
K sets a slow, weary movement to the initial arioso for Azucena, which Simionato handles with a dark, mournful colour and seemingly endless supplies of breath.
Then K goes as fast as the wind into the stretta, and old Giulietta digs into it like a starved greyhound, taking, but of course, all the high options.
