Sorry, but Cecilia Bartoli received the 2006 Echo Classic Award for Oper Proibita , not for Maria , as you wrote. She did receive the Echo for Maria- but in 2008.
Dear Anonymous,
I know very well what I've written. Cecilia received the 2008 Echo for Maria, while the PHOTO is from the Echo 2006 (as at the time this post was written, the Ceremony had not taken place).
