i know she doesn’t sound great here but this is the dress rehearsal and she apparently had a cold, so let’s be a little bit understanding.

[@lilindia313]

I think she sounds great 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@David-Morgans]

Sing, Latonia! So excited for opening night!!!

[@JorgeAntonioRubio81]

I absolutely enjoyed last night’s SiriusXM Met Opera Radio transmission

[@auntiezy4008]

Speedy recovery Latonia.

Ayeee

[@jennetal.984]

Her performance on the live steam was 🔥

[@JorgeAntonioRubio81]

ABSOLUTELY 👍

[@iheartverdi]

Brava! I want more

[@joetursi9573]

I thought Indra Thomas was great , and she is, but Latonai is even better.

Культура исполнения страдает, голос не выровнен регистры не сглажены.

[@raimundhirsch3623]

И редкая поскуда по характеру. Хотя её Аида мне очень нравится! Надо же так многотонно разжиреть, чтоб строить из себя изголодавшуюся рабыню. Вероподобно как Дед Мороз

This is exquisite. Latonia is queen

Floria Tosca??? How original!! Don't let anyone tell you you're a sad cliche. LOLOL

Not good

Troppo fiato

This is supposed to be good? Yikes, it’s confirmed that the ears have long left the Met.

[@operafairy]

For those who thought that Met hit the bottom. Not yet 🤣

[@laurencutrone4057]

Then why do you keep watching their videos? You only appear here to leave rude and insulting comments. I really hope you find a better hobby. It must be exhausting to be so negative all the time.

[@operafairy]

​@@laurencutrone4057 because I'm curious what another ''achievement'' Met as the best Opera house can reach. And it's my holy right to post truth, not a tolerate delusion. If it would be a good rendition, I'll notice it without any hesitation. And can't you read, there are a lot of comments more rude and critical here but obviously you want to notice only mine, are you my fan?

[@laurencutrone4057]

@@operafairy Because you post negativity on every. single. video. I see you on this account a lot and I've never once seen you post anything positive. It's a shame. I wish you had a kinder heart. Consistently tearing down opera singers who work incredibly hard at their craft is a pretty crappy hobby to have.

[@operafairy]

@@laurencutrone4057 every single video? I've not checked this channel for many days already, and this clip was offered by KZbin algorithms yesterday. I'd post a positive thing if there be a reason for it. I can't see it here: out of breath, legato, pitch, style, voice itself. Only negligence and indifference, which can't be take as an excuse. SInging is an act of art creating, and it can't be totally formal and badly made. An illustrative and very simple association - one can't be kind with a builder who made the house which breaking down. If one can't build the house construct something more simple then.

[@operas6]

YOU (whoever you may be) have not hit the bottom yet either. Why don't post a video of your singing so we can all laugh and laugh?

She sounds great!! You can clearly hear that she’s sick and still delivering vocally 🤷🏽‍♀️

Awful!

[@myfairlady3763]

Horrible

[@carlamaral3990]

Her Italian pronunciation is terrible. In some spots, she sounds like she’s yodeling. Certainly no Leontyne Price.
