Not only do we South Africans boast pretty Pretty's voice but also her elegant attire was designed by one of our most talented home boys, Henry Schickerling of Tosca New York!
For me of all the you 21st sopranos coming onto the scene (& we're being spoilt rotten) if she's not the best of the bunch she's in the top 1! Well blessed.
Geez, Pretty Yende you are pretty amazing. I saw you by chance in Cape Town in 2010. It was a moment not to forget. what a voice and flair. Thanks kolyur08-1for the posting.
Love her beautiful voice and presence on stage. Each year improving on the previous year performance by performance. Such a blessed young talent at the beginning of a brilliant career. Bravi!
This brings a memorable smile to me - remember Christine McIntyre even Curly doing lip service to this song in one of the Three Stooges episodes but of course Ms. Pretty is showing us how it’s really done, thanks!
La musique,du Faso est une source intarissable de douceurs. Elle permet de plonger au plus profond de soi et simultanément d'entrer en résonance avec son prochain, Yé Lassina Coulibaly❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Of course she is not kathleen battle!!!! She is Pretty Yende and her voice is unique!!! her timber is just so clean and beautiful. This is the beginning of her remarkable career and she is already sounding like this!! I just love her!!!
sans doute une grande diva du 21 ième siecle quand sa voix s'arrondira qu'elle chantera Verdi ,Gounod Bizet.... à Bastille son air de la folie de Lucia est merveilleux
Sutherlandfan64, are you blind? This beautiful girl is oozing charm, she has a great stagepresens. I am sure La Stupenda would have been greatly impressed by this young singer.She has amazing breathcontrole, perfect voice projection, and stunning agility.She is perfect in the Rossini repertoire, what more do you want? Do not be so biased, it is kind of stupid.
Christian Wijnoogst i do not understand why sone people cant just enjoy music as "music enjoyable" and have to find a small little thing and give it negativity. how do these people go through life is beyond me. thank you for standing up to that Sutherland guy.
Evan Kaw, I don't understand it either.Some people are really evil in their comments, for example; go and see the video's of Olga Peretyatko and Salome Jicia, two young Russian singers starting their career. You will see that there is a group of people, ( I call them trolls ) that are really trying to destroy those young singers. Why? I have no idea! I try to fight them, but I fully realise I am like Don Quichote, fighting windmills.
@Sutherlandfan... Well I am a Callas all time fan since I was 3 year old doesn't mean one have to deny talent Pretty Yende is a great singer to me too just open your heart your hears and your soul one has to be open to difference no?
