She aspirates the coloratura just a bit (or perhaps is miked very closely), but otherwise she is actually quite vivacious and brilliant in voice and manner. I like it. Pretty, too. All of this adds up to a pretty good Cleopatra in this aria.

In the beginning is showed two albums. Danielle De Niese's Handel arias and Albrecht Mayer's ablum New Seasons...Well, Ablrecht's New Season includes oboe versions of Handel arias. So, it makes since that they put the two together. But you are right, there is no oboe in this aria, but I think it was beautifully done.

I think her coloratura is getting better articulated, but no, her top notes aren't the greatest. Her high C (really C#, but this performance is at A=415) did sound really effortful. But I don't think all those top notes are essential in Handel. I don't think Handel wrote any note higher than A in this aria.

Not sure why this aria has been rewritten to include an obbligato oboe. I adore Mayer, but this is beyond the pale. And where was the B section? As for de Niese, I give her every credit for tackling this hideously difficult aria. However, her gesticulations and bodily agitations merely increase its difficulties. If she stood still and concentrated on singing properly, she might be able to get through a single phrase without having to take several unnecessary breaths that disrupt the musical line. A major disappointment, and a brazen, crass insult to Händel.

You are perpetuating the philistine modern myth that opera singers of the past were all fat, ungainly, and loud, and thereby excusing Danielle's utter lack of musicianship as being 'modern.' Anna Moffo, Lisa Della Casa, Shirley Verrett, Grace Bumbry, Gwyneth Jones, Elisabeth Schwarzkopf, Pilar Lorengar, and most importantly Maria Callas were all beautiful, elegant, glamorous ladies and actresses, in addition to being incredibly gifted and intelligent musicians and interpreters.

Well, yes, the vibrato can be a bit distracting at times, but I can survive with that... But my point is this : what both you and I are reffering to seem to be technical problems, while most people here seem to be annoyed by her "stylistically inappropreate" performance. That really pisses me off. So what, if something is not "stylistically appropreate" it cannot be good? Would they also spit on Sills' Cleopatra and Ginevra? Grrr...

Leaving style aside, de Niese's 'performance' was laughably bad. Not one phrase was sung in tune, and she displayed virtually no vocal finesse: no breath control, no real coloratura ability, no chiaroscuro, no dynamic shading, no proper support of the voice...the deficiencies are endless. It was like listening to an eighth-grade talent show. However, she does have a twenty-three inch waist, and her husband is a big 'macher' in the opera world. It's not hard to see why she gets hired.

I must quip that I find the oboe really annoying, on the verge of disruptive. I don't even think it's in the score. And of course, that weird cut. Ugh.

Everyone here talks as if they lived during the time of Handel. The truth is baroque opera is a dying and unpopular genre because nobody's allowed to interpret anything, knowing how annoying and small their audience is. This artist dares to feel the music she is given, and lo and behold, people become interested in baroque opera again. Personally, I don't care if the elitist "afficianados" - that can stifle any art form to death - stay behind while the rest of us attempt to experiment.
