[@sanfordpress54]

Amazing. She's a teacher. An actress. A professional. An inspiration

Her timbre is just fine. She's exciting

SUBLIME SINGING

@Chris Louie Are your serious?

[@Samuel6969ify]

Dopo la Horne è l'unico mezzo oggi in grado di diventare la numero uno al mondo e dovrebbe quindi lasciar perdere i ruoli da soprano e riprendere il repertorio che ha reso la Norne unica al mondo. Ne ha le capacità sia vocali che interpretative

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Her timbre may not be pleasing to all, but her musicality and vocal technique are indisputable.

[@paullewis2413]

"Her timbre may not be pleasing to all?" Yes, to those who don't know the first thing about opera singing and think wannabes in talent shows have good voices - lol

​@@paullewis2413Not only is not pleasant, but it's not because of technical defaults.

[@DiomedesDioscuro]

Quizás por el lirismo de la parte, la noto mucho mejor que en la mayoría de sus interpretaciones. Aunque su amaneramiento expresivo ahí está...

[@MiguelExhale]

This lady is cold with the voice.

[@gausslins6066]

No, she isn't cold!

[@IndigoBone]

+Miguel Henry You should hear her sing other things. This particular performance is of the character Romeo (as in Romeo and Juliet). Here, Romeo is trying to broker a peace between the two warring families--the Capulets and the Montagues. Part of what you may hear, or not hear, is simply the characterization, or perhaps the situation. Or, maybe you equate a fast vibrato with cold? I'm not sure what you're hearing that makes you think cold. In any case, really, if you're interested, find some other recordings of hers. She is actually quite spectacular. There is a recording from this past summer, in Paris, where she sings the Barcarolle with Julie Fuchs, which is just marvelous and rich. I also particularly like her recording of "Madre dilette, abbracciami," from her Drama Queens album. It's just wonderful and full of feeling. Just two off the top of my head that may change your feeling about her singing.

+Indigo Bone in fairly sure he meant "cold with the voice" as a compliment as in she can really sing...

[@IndigoBone]

Ah. Then nevermind! Think I'm a bit behind the expressions... ;-)
