Very nice voice but a bit too precious. That’s not a criticism of the singer but rather the industry and how it coaches singers to express - i.e. in a style that is excessively informed by an instrumentalist’s need for precision and less an actors need to express drama. Look a Giuseppi Taddei as an example of fuller integration of musical and textual imperatives. His is not the only way to sing this aria but it certainly doesn’t stumble on the account of excessive preciousness.
We saw Mané last night at the Santa Fe Opera, and I was absolutely blown away ❤ Brava, so moving! A wonderful talent, I do not have words beautiful enough to match her talent, my new favorite singer ❤👏🏾
Wonderfully sang. Bravo LB. That is why at age 60, I am inspired to study operatic singing because of you. One day, I hope to sing just like you. And pls, sing more standards❤❤❤
I can't believe i found this. I had been longing to hear the recording after i sang with the PWA singers. It was such a moving moment and love the song.
Where the fuck do you find these schmucks. His breath is louder than his voice. Sounds too feeble to lift that hammer. Sounds exhausted standing still. Figure out how to hire GOOD singers, not just whoever the agents and managers tell you to hire.
