Bravisima Leona MItchell. Tuve la suerte de verla en este rol de Amelia en el Teatro Colón. Jamás voy a olvidar el caudal, la potencia y el timbre aterciopelado de su voz. Grande Leona Mitchell !!!!!!!
@@luisnorbertogomez2328 Hola Luis. Fue en abril del año 1994. Leona Michell (Amelia), Peter Dvorsky (Riccardo), Alain Fondary (Renatto), Nina Terentieva (Ulrica) Harolyn Blackwell (Oscar) y la dirección de Tiziano Severini. Una hermosa producción. Es una pena que no la hayas podido ver. Como decía en el comentario inicial, es inolvidable ese color y caudal de voz maravilloso.
My goodness, what have I been missing all these years? She had sung a lot at the Metropolitan Opera, but then it seemed like she dropped off a ledge and was not seen again in the New York audience! I am glad to see that Australia picked her up!
Yes, she had an 18 year career at the MET. In a recent interview, she explained that after her 18th season, she was not asked back and the reason was not clear, but it had nothing to do with her singing! Her relationship with Sydney Opera in Australia was a great one and she was there for 25 seasons!
Leona had a long career at the Met of 18 seasons specializing in Verdi and Puccini. After the Met, she was a mainstay at Opera Australia for many years. The Met just never promoted her as they did like a Netrebko or a Flemming.
Yes, that's correct. Even after her successful 18 seasons at the Met, she continued to sing all over the world in the major opera houses including Buenos Aires, France, and a high profile production of Aida in Cairo, Egypt.
A NOSSA SINA Na ária Ecco l'orrido campo, da ópera Un Ballo In Maschera, de Verdi, tem a revelação tétrica: "Meia-noite! - e o que eu vejo? Um espectro Do subterrâneo ele se levanta ... e, em métrica, Suspira! Ele tem um lampejo de raiva em seus Olhos. Ele é terrível! Ajude-me, oh! Senhor, Ergue meu pobre coração!" Ao inimigo adeus. Tudo se resolve com o coração cheio de amor. Como num incêndio, a pandemia em rescaldo. Mas as pessoas com medo chama as chamas. E o perigo ronda os medrosos sem respaldo. A fé no todo que nos envolve e a todos ensina O caminho que chega ao lugar sem haver lamas. Deslindar os mistérios a todos é a nossa sina.
