		Malibran instantly resigned for the benefit of her husband's creditors any claims which she might have made on the remnants of his estate, and her New York admirers had as much occasion to applaud the rectitude and honor of the woman as they had had the genius of the artist.
		Malibran was, beyond all of her competitors, a singer of most versatile and brilliant genius, in whom dramatic instincts reigned with as dominant force as ability of musical expression.
		Malibran's second season in Paris confirmed the estimate which had been placed on her genius, but the incessant labors of her professional life and the ardor with which she pursued the social enjoyments of life were commencing to undermine her health.

		But the famous soprano Maria Malibran liked Donizetti's first version better, and she was singing the title role of Mary Stuart.
		So, on her own, Malibran ignored the changes and sang the opera as originally written.
		For decades, only the "presentable," censored version was performed and that may be the main reason that Maria Stuarda, one of Donizetti's most fascinating and moving operas, has only recently regained its place in the world's opera houses.

		Die römische Mezzosopranistin Cecilia Bartoli präsentiert ihre Hommage an eine der schillerndsten Figuren der Opernwelt, die Diva der europäischen Romantik Maria Malibran.
		Brava!' und in die Hände klatschte, bis ich nicht mehr konnte", schrieb der Komponist an einen Freund anno 1833, nachdem er Maria Malibran in London auf der Bühne als Amina in seiner "La sonnambula" erlebt hatte.
		Maria Malibran, die durchaus den Ehrgeiz an den Tag legte, alle ihre Konkurrentinnen zu überflügeln, nahm indirekt die Herausforderung an und avancierte schnell zur umschwärmten Bellini-Sängerin.

		A series of 8mm films dedicated to the opera singer Maria Callas, whom Schroeter greatly admired since being introduced to her music by his mother as a child, consist largely of still photographs of the singer.
		In another film of this period, Der Tod der Maria Malibran (1971), Schroeter depicts the death of the nineteenth century mezzo-soprano Maria Malibran.
		Malibran prefigures some of the other highly passionate but ultimately mortal figures who appear in later films including Der Rosenkönig (1984-6), Malina (1990) and the various ageing divas who appear in his documentary Poussières d'amour (1996).

		She became very soon one of the most celebrated singers of her time.
		She appeared in a variety of Rossini’s operas (Tancredi, Otello, Il Turco in Italia, La Cenerentola, Semiramide) but also succeeded in Donizetti’s Maria Stuarda and in Meyerbeer’s Il Crociato in Egitto.
		She certainly never had the operatic success of her sister Maria Malibran in the Italian repertoire but in the operas by Meyerbeer and Halévy, she had no equal.

		The not-so-sub subtext is emotional fascism and the sadomasochism of “love,” here delivered in a particularly dry and forceful manner, and in a rigorous visual style that already reeks of confidence.
		For those not up on their opera history, Maria Malibran was a renowned 19th-century singer who died tragically at 28 as a result of a hunting accident.
