Part 11 of the "Dramatic sopranos sing..." series. Nineteen dramatic sopranos attempt Brünnhilde's low G from Act 2 of Götterdämmerung, some better than others. I think this one is a bit more difficult than the Kundry's G due to the heavier orchestration and the lower voice being less primed (Brünnhilde sits a little higher than Kundry, especially in the scenes preceding this). Be mindful that the G is written as an eighth note and is not really meant to be sustained, even though it might sound more impressive that way.
