I have explicitly followed ALL instructions even downloaded lame - the program goes through all the right motions but when I save to mp3 it has not made any difference - the voice remains - please assist
thank you

If you are trying to achieve vocal removal, see here: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Vocal_Removal

More to the point, I'll bet that recordings of Elizabeth Schwartzkopf aren't going to be vocal-removable. The usual techniques for removing vocals rely on the original tracks having been recorded using pop-music techniques - stereo separation on instrumentals, vocals well-centered, etc. Those are not the techniques used in recording opera.
