The voice is a bridge which connects the heart from the artist to the public...What a great quote!! Wonderful interview with this soprano, one of my living favorites!
She exemplifies everything wonderful in opera singing - heart, truth, such technical excellence that you are not aware of the technique. Her recent Met Violetta was riveting, heart-stopping, on a par with very few great names. Such beauty of tone, but all of it connected to a core of emotion. The public went crazy - even those who don't know why they respond to this, respond.
Excellent news gentlemen. I love you channel for the insightful questions and the thoughtful and wonderful answers from your amazingly talented guests. Is there any chance that you'll be able to sit down with the Russian bass Alexander Vinogradov while he's in town for Lucia? from the brief intermission interview during the telecast of Luisa Miller, he seems like an interesting person and would likely be a very good interview. All the best from Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada
