This role, in my personal opinion, belongs to Shirley Verrett. She sang it like no other has. Ms. Netrebko has done a good job at it, but it is difficult to say more, when Shirley Verrett did an excellent job with this role. The standing ovations for her at La Scala when she sang it are legendary, need I say more.
@alexthomas175010 жыл бұрын
Yeah but you can hear her career cutting in half as she sings it. Her voice was destroyed after those performances because she constantly opened her upper register to get her top notes to sound like a soprano. Listen to her Amelia and subsequent Carmen at La Scala afterwards. The voice is shredded to pieces. She has gaps in the middle range the size of a tectonic rift. Callas owned this role. Now Netrebko may be able to sing this aria so so, but the entire opera? NAHHHH! Just wait until she has to get through those killer concertantos at the ends of acts one and two. She can barely sing the coloratura here never mind the leaps and bounds during the party scene at the end of act 2.

Altonahh10 I completely agree it's all a matter of opinion, and everybody has the right to one. But without comparison, how does anyone know what's the right or wrong way to do anything. This is an art form which has been passed down from generations over hundreds of years. If we just ignore what's been, then it just turns into senseless notes on a page. Dismissing historical performance traditions breaks the thread that goes back to the composer himself, and his original intentions for his work.

As always, her coloratura is sloppy and imprecise. Apart from that, she is too taxed as this part is too heavy for a lyric soprano, and her interpretation is boring. To me, she represents all that is wrong with the opera world today: It's more important to be beautiful and thin, so you look good on stage and on dvd's, and to have a voice with little or no vibrato, so you record well, than to actually take the trouble to train your voice, work hard and sing the repertoire that is appropriate for your range and fach, which is what will do justice to the music and please the audience in the long run. This woman has had the operatic world before her feet for many years, so why does she keep on choosing the wrong parts - too light bel canto roles where the coloratura defeats her (her "Son vergin vezzosa" sung in half voice was atrocious) or too heavy roles like this one??

Rysanek, Marton, and Guleghina-style intonation and wobble creeping in. Without the sonic and dramatic impact (or assault), of course. Let alone the genial creation of Maria Callas. Let's see how long AN lasts. To her credit, she may be giving up for good the Moscow streetwalker act (e.g., "Meine Lippen") in favor of a less frivolous persona. Time will tell; again, if she lasts. Although she relapsed during her performance here, wholly out of character with what was to come or what went on before. Old habits die hard, it is said.

You think her intonation is bad now? Wait until next season's over when she's done doing Lady Macbeth and Leonora in one season. She won't be able sustain anything at pitch. I think it's the natural way she's been going since em"bark"ing on a career in the first place. She pushed Suzanna, Lucia, Elvira, Manon. She'll now push Leonora, Lady M, Tosca and probably Norma. Idiots will love her, as they did Guleghina, and she'll make lots of money. It'll be fun at least to watch it happen.

Yes, but she tries to sing everything and she is not Callas. She has strained her voice quite a bit over the last 10 years. She had a very beautiful lighter soprano voice. This aria she should never touch by her ever. There are several others on the internt that one can hear to find out what this aria requires. I understand it is a letter scene where she discovers incriminating information but Netrebko just more or less sashays on stage. She does not look comfortable either.

In my humble opinion, Anna Netrebko is the top opera singer today for the following 5 reasons: She can sing. She can act. She is very pretty - actually drop-dead gorgeous comes to mind. She has an incredible sense of timing in both comic and serious roles and finally and most important she sings with a primal energy that is unrivaled by any other singer.

an andy fluency in a language does not mean you have proper diction whilst singing. Its quite evident here that she doesn’t, especially if you actually listened to the words. It’s passable but that’s all. She’s always had weird vowel sounds in anything other than russian. Secondly she IS a lyric soprano. She was a lighter lyric before her baby but now she is a proper full lyric soprano. She is by NO MEANS a dramatic soprano in any shape or form of the fach and certainly not a dramatico coloratura soprano which is what this role really requires. She has never been a coloratura which is why her past repertoire full of coloratura roles has been mediocre in quality. Decent enough but not excellent. That’s generally how I describe her: Decent not Excellent. Please see the actual definitions for each of those words if you disagree.

My personal guess would be that she probably isn't very intelligent. I mean - she started out with absolutely EXTRAORDINARY vocal material, but she didn't have the sense to train it properly. And in spite of having been at the absolute top of the operatic world for more than ten years, meaning that she can pick and choose her repertoire etc., she repeatedly chooses the wrong roles, both too light and too heavy. It all points in the direction that she isn't very bright. Sorry.

She’s too ambitious for her own good. Even though she’s a lyric (whose looks make her perfect for the more mature/elegant lyric parts), most lyric parts...are kinda flat characters admittedly. She wants the more juicy roles, and she has admitted she could care less for the fach system (she prefers to be called just a soprano than a lyric soprano). Compare her to Renee Fleming, who has for the most part stuck to roles in her fach range.

Yes, in the crescendo parts a slower tempo can help, indeed, but the whole thing here was much slower than usual. I agree Netrebko's timbre is a warm, full lyric column of sound, though I think she has the ability to darken and sharpen it to roles like LM. That said, of course she'll never convey the same "evil" that dramatic sopranos or mezzos like Callas, Verrett or Nilsson could. Those will always be the reference interpretations of this role, even if Netrebko is wonderful and versatile.

Ich finde es sehr schade, dass Anna ihrer klaren Klang, lyrische Sopran verloren hatte. Am Anfang ihrer Karriere, sie hatte Engelstimme welcher für Bellini, Donizetti Rollen geeignete, nun singt sie eher dramatische Rollen, welche überhaupt nicht für ihre Stimme passen. Lady Macbeth ist nicht ihre Partie...nicht für ihre klare Stimme. Anna singt das sehr schwer und zu tief, seit ein paar Jahren, versucht sie sich als dramatische Sopran und deswegen ihre unikale und einzigartige Stimme verloren hat. Es wäre viel viel besser, wenn Anna mit ihrer kristallklaren Stimme weiterhin gesungen hätte und nicht gleich, als viele anderen Kolleginnen-Sopran

Wann war sie jemals für Bellini und Donizetti geeignet? Amina, Elvira, Lucia ... alles schlechtes Mittelmaß

Die Netrebko war auch nicht für das Belcanto répertoire geeignet (Donizetti, Bellini etc) hören sie sich mal z. B. die Joan Sutherland in diesen Rollen an, das sind Welten....für eine Lucia di Lamnermoor oder eine La Sonnambula braucht es eine unglaubliche Virtuosität die ein lyrischen Sopran meistens in diesem Sinne nicht hat, dafür für andere Rollen wieder super geeignet. Die Netrebko singt als lyrischer Sopran schon die ganze zeit das falschen Fach, sie ist halt ein Produkt des heutigen Musikbusiness...das sich nur auf dem grossen Star konzentriert und eigentlich nicht auf die Musik 🎶dadurch ist ihre schöne Stimme leider schon ermüdet....

Regarding the slower tempo that could help her I was refereering to the crescendo parts that need agility to respect all the notes. By stretching the tempo it could be easier to fullfill respectfully all the fast notes.

Déclamation embourbée, accent manquant de tranchant, de mordant. La lourdeur de la vocalisation et les problèmes d'intonation (2'40!!!) sont rédhibitoires hélas. Lyudmila Monastyrska avec un timbre assez proche est d'une toute autre rigueur et par suite autorité.

This is definitely NOT for her!! It stretches her to the max, and the tempi are all off. Her upper register is flapping and pushed. She also is breathing in weird places. Almost embarassing.

Non sarà la Callas. Non sarà una voce drammatica. Mi scrivete la lista di nomi di soprani drammatici ATTUALI, giovani, che sono adatti per questo ruolo, per favore? Non una, una lista perché non c'è un solo Teatro al mondo, vero?

Personality obviously is not enough. Voice and technique are necessary. Netrebko falls far, far short of great performances of this area--for example, Verrett, Souliotis, Elizabeth Connell, and above all, Callas (especially in the two 1952 performances of this aria).

apart from disagreeing with the declamatory reading of the letter and some other stuff, she doesn't sound being in vocal trouble. Rather feeling more comfortable with this repertory than the belcanto. The latter was a mistake. This repertory sounds good. I see that people are buffled by this, but she has been on stage for more than 20 years as a lead singer and still goes strong... This is her punishment to all of us who raised eyebrows some years ago... Well... Go girl!

How can you call yourself Maria Callas and approve of this mediocre trash?? I don't think you have listened very well to Callas. This performance is ludicrous.

you probably did not realise that I am not commenting on the artistic side but the pure technical skill... [allow me the "vague" comment -anyone can claim anything on the internet(...) that important people in the business trust my opinion on singing and I have never let them down....] I will have to insist that her mastering of the vocal technique cannot be debated any more after all these years on stage and holding as the nummber one -at least ad far as Salzburg, the MET, Scala, Covent Garden etc etc is concerned and the fees they pay her... I know this is no proof of value but it damn is proof of having a singing technique twenty years into a top notch career!!
