Bellini wrote this masterpiece for Ms. Oropesa. Perfection. Best technique in the opera world.

[@MrQbenDanny]

FANTÁSTICA!!! She sings the score Bellini wrote. Are there embellishments a La Callas? Yes. So what??? Oropesa has good taste!!! I LOVE IT 🎉!!!!

[@ОмарГоряев]

Украшения, которые вы упомянули пели во времена Россини и Беллини практически все певцы легко и непринужденно. Их всего было несколько десятков и Каллас пела их тоже. Она была голосом той эпохи. Отрадно слышать молодые голоса, которые не запинаются-спотыкаются об эту ступеньку😊

[@corneliusbates460]

She is stepping into her greatness with each performance Lisette is major talent

[@Keiwon.X.Lambert]

Yessss 100% agree

[@lindsaydenman1835]

So very true. She is an exquisite singer-disciplined, passionate, impeccable.

[@robertcharlesfrenette3343]

Bellini is the super composer! His artistry is so emotive, delicate, simple, and beautiful.

[@samueljaramillo4221]

Exquisite voice. We’ve heard this amazing singer at the Met many times. She never disappoints.👏👏

[@IndoPersian1969]

Is no one going to ask where this was recorded, and who the other artists are??? @Proszenium A do you not feel it's pertinent to tell us?! No...I guess, it's JUST about the soprano (who, no doubt, is stellar)...just the soprano....no one else was involved.

[@werner2oo]

Tenor is Filipe Manu. This is an excerpt from a televised concert filmed in lockdown at the Royal Opera House in London (hence the social distancing). Antonio Pappano conducting and orchestra/chorus members of the ROH.

[@IndoPersian1969]

@@werner2oo Thank you so much!

[@allydaopera]

Lisette could punch me in the face and I would thank her. She is one of the greatest singers of our time

[@lindsaydenman1835]

Haha, same same. I'd welcome it.

[@adammrva2569]

I saw her singing gilda in roh, indeed sound in sweet but the melodies are bit lost, which is bit rare to opera singers who should read the notes and listen to orchestra

[@ahogbin2644]

Beautifully sung. I’m puzzled by references to Callas as her voice sounds nothing like that soprano. Maybe in the intensity of her musicianship there’s a comparison. She’s more of a lyric coloratura than a dramatic and yet her Gilda in London last year rang out splendidly and real trills too. Wonderful.

[@mugrad25]

I agree...i hear Gheorghiu at the bottom and lower middle. Sills' brightness at the top😊

[@DavidBrowningBYD]

I am a great fan of this beautiful and kind lady. She granted me an interview several years ago for my opera blog Taminophile. (She also posted an Instagram pic last year wearing a crochet garment I had made for her!) I saw her first Violetta in Philadelphia--I was surprised, having only seen her at the Met in roles like Werther's Sophie, but boy howdy! did she give an amazing Violetta! During her years in the Met's LIndermann program, she coached extensively in roles like Violetta and Lucia with masters like Renata Scotto while performing roles like Sophie and Nanetta. I am excited to see where Lisette's career takes her.

[@mertenssimone5438]

[@marcosalterio6306]

I discovered Lisette during 2020 and I was amazed. She is amazing, and want to say that there are some Callas nuances there, which is not comparing dead people to her or anything of the kind. She does not need to impersonate Callas, as great as she was, because she herself is. I am just saying that there are pianissimi, attack of high notes and certain darkness in tones " a la Callas" which I find lovely. BRAVA Lisette!!! Love you.

[@paragod333]

Why even mention Callas?

[@rhanemcquain3853]

@@paragod333 lol bc he’s glad to see a great artist with similarly great musicality as Callas. I’m sure Lisette would be honored by the comparison, as she’s responded favorably to similar comments in the past.

[@kngiht84]

Except that there was no chest voice which Callas was preaching. I'll still take Oropresa over anyone else these days.

[@Yves_Ka]

@@paragod333 because occasionally there is something in the timbre especially in the middle - that is reminiscent of Callas. It is not an imitation

[@slayqueen2460]

I totally agree with you there are definitely nuances of Callas' voice here, you can hear it clearly. Brava Lisette ❤

[@juanpuyol221]

Dios me libre de convertirme alguna vez en un súperexperto en ópera, me puede amargar la existencia y el disfrute :-)

[@joanna.melissa.rosenberg]

Por lejos Lisette es la soprano con mejor técnica del bellcanto en nuestros tiempos y con su propio estilo y con las posibilidades de su canto, que es mejor aligerar el tempo y hacerlo bien que dárselas de genia y estropear la linea de canto. Me divierte las comparaciones con la Callas, esa estupidez eterna de comparar a los vivos con los muertos xD quien sabe si quizás la Callas fue mediocre al lado de una Giuditta Pasta en sus mejores tiempos, y de tantas más de los mejores años del Bell canto...las comparaciones son como debates de niños de 10 años. Lisette Oropesa tiene un bellcanto extrañísimo para nuestros tiempos, coincidentemente las dos mejores sopranos de hoy, por un lado en su registro lírico de agilidad en Lisette y por otro lado el dramatismo y oscuridad de Soia Hernandez, ambas de España da esperanzas de que tanto el bellcanto, como el verismo ortodoxo, no se han perdido del todo, eso lo deberíamos elogiar y que hayan más castrantes así de comprometidos con su arte y no los debates infantiles de quien es mejor que quien.

[@pabs661]

So much of her singing technique and musicality reminds of of Callas at the peak of her powers. She seems like Callas's gentler, prettier daughter. They understand and shape the music so similarly.

[@davidmolina7543]

Absolutely.

[@SteveL2012]

She is inherently musical like Callas-the music and the person inseparable.

[@yogajedi3337]

Like Callas. ahahahahaha, perhaps in your dreams. After Callas and Pavarotti there is absolutely NOTHING in comparison.

[@jmiller05]

She is good but let's not go crazy lol.

[@Shahrdad]

@@jmiller05 Her voice is nothing like Callas's. Where they are similar is their understanding of the shape of the music, of legato, the shading and shaping of coloratura, their ability to sing the coloratura passages legato without ever resorting to gargling or aspirating, and their ability to sing trills in every register. Whereas many singers learn the wrong lesson from Callas and end up aping her, Oropesa has learned the correct lessons.

[@raisachepcherenko7897]

Bravissimo, cara Lisette!!!

[@purenkool2024]

I watched Miss Oropesa sing “Lucia di Lammermoor” at Royal Opera House in London. What a revelation. Her acting moves a stone heart… her coloratura makes one weep! I wept. It was a perfect Lucia. Lisette is an American artist. 🇺🇸 Her talent is as powerful as her beauty. 🌹🌹🌹

Dear Lisette, when you sang your Lucia on opening night at the ROH a new years ago I posted a message on the ROH chat room. It basically told the ROH to lock all the doors of the opera house until they made sure, you had signed all the contracts you wanted for any bel canto rôle . So looking forward to hearing you live at the ROH again.
