The word in English might be scatological...

Bellini 8
The CD version of this (only the DVD is listed on Amazon)


Ms. Theodossiou is in direct competition with three Callases, Sutherland, Sills, and Bartoli.
I was surprised to learn the tenor, Carlo Ventre, is from Uruguay because his Italian sounds like a New Yorker's idea of a Neapolitan street singer.

ETA: Theodossiou is rather good, an epitome if bel canto singing.  Daniella Barcellona as Adalgisa is a good partner for her.  If only the tenor didn't sound like he was ready to launch into Funicula Funiculi at any moment....

Scatologic in Romanian. There's also scatofagie.
