EXTRACT | “Quando me'n vo'” from Puccini’s LA BOHÈME - Opéra de Monte-Carlo

[@HipHoperaGuy]

The soprano in the video is Mariam Battistelli

[@bryanabriz508]

Wow! Nice to hear a soprano without a wobble lol. When Mimi joins in at the end, Musetta's vibrato sounds much more pleasant.

[@hannersification]

Seriously what is with these comments... I keep forgetting what kind of snobs opera/theatre fans usually are 🙄

[@lordmelbury116]

Yeah, I've recently been browsing through the Presto Classical site for opera DVD's and some of the productions I found are really bizarre. And it surprises me that this is considered to over the top.

[@DaniAlejandra]

Wooow! Es hermosísima y su voz tiene una claridad única.

[@geertjestarreveld3125]

Excellent codices. Excellent play..

[@GiorgioPecorari-zz5yn]

Mariam bravissima e bellissima ❤

[@nicolocaputo2286]

Che voce.....sei un orgoglio Nazionale, bravissima

[@silvanacraparotta249]

Bravissima!!!!

[@nunziodonzuso6549]

I like her a lot, she is skilled and beautiful, but why isn't she looking at Marcello? Musetta's supposed to be seductive, looking at her lover and not all the time towards the public

[@ryan.engstrom]

Singers don't seem into it. I don't blame them. I would be too if trying to work around a selfish director's "concept."

[@TwoSopranos]

Wish I’d known about them, and auditioned there. I did a pretty good Mimi when at music college in London. Got great reviews in Opera Now 🤦‍♀️🥂🍾

[@lindseydejesus1877]

que bellisima!

[@nickrockway472]

she's great but the outfits and stage direction are bad

[@nickrockway472]

also where tf is marcello

[@arnoldamaral7406]

Who is this soprano??

[@OperaVision]

This is Mariam Battistelli

[@pitvla8]

@@OperaVision You wouldn't want to consider editing the video description to include that information, would you? It's a shame for the name of the artist to be buried this deep in the comments.

[@odedszpiro8222]

Too modernised for me. I like the somewhat older, maybe , original traditional setup.

what is that costume?? It looks awful.

Poor Puccini,,!!

High maintenance.

Seems like black and white minstrel show copy???!!!

How is this in any way related to minstrel shows???

?? How

[@nancysikes]

@@kayj2968 she has a pop singer's voice with the thinnest overlay of operatic soprano. She's beautiful, but she's faking it.

Lol she is Italian

She's Italian, she was raised in Italy

@@mdte5421 Many Italians sing with poor diction in Italian. The fact she is Italian has nothing to do with it. Such ignorance!
