Fabulous summary. Thank you.

It isn't just other houses that have lost their way, vocally, but the greatest house, one of the oldest houses, has turned into the projects, vocally.

Anna Pirozzi una extraordinaria Leonor de Vargas de la Forza del destino, nos encantó aquí en el Liceu asombroso su dominio de la partitura, una voz fresca, elegante, de riqueza de sonidos, brava la Pirozzi. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Grandes títulos , no grandes cantantes. Aun así, una buena temporada y muchos éxitos.

I agree, Anna Pirozzi is a truly fantastic Donna Leonora in Verdi's ''La Forza del Destino'' has a very well-placed voice. She should have opened the season of ''STAGIONE'' at La Scala instead of Anna Netrebko and she should have sung ''Norme'' by V. Belliniin Milan instead of Marina Rebecca !!! Where is she (?????????) - she sings and triumphs in London and Berlin but why not in La Scala ??? (!!!!)

@ me pregunto exactamente lo mismo. Aparte Pirozzi es una excelente reina Elisabet de Don Carlo. No se entiende qué sucede con ella y la Scala. Saludos cordiales

@@LaPrimadonna164 - Anna Pirozzi is a great singer with a rather rare ''dramatic coloratura'' voice , with excellent emission and intonation , perfect for performing bel canto parts. She is successful at the Met, Covent Garden, Vienna and Berlin but not at La Scala !!! La Scala is dominated by the money of oligarchs from Russia and Ukraine , so mainly artists from Eastern Europe sing there, such as Anna Netrebko , Aida Garifullina and Marina Rebecca !!! I have the impression that more Russians ,Ukrainians , Latvians and Lithuanians sing at La Scala than Ialians themselves !!!

Well, the new 2024-2025 season of ''STAGIONE'' at the famous La Scala in Milan in fast approaching , and the world of opera and ballet enthusiasts is waiting for it. Am I waiting for this season - this is a very interesting question. The answer is both yes and no !!! Once upon a time , as a regular visitor to the seasons and openings of ''STAGIONE'' of this legendary theater , I absolutely loved being there and enjoying the wonderful voices I heard there - not anymore !!! Since the general directorship of La Scala was held Aleksander Pereira and Stephane Lissner , and now by Dominique Meyer, and the artistic director is Riccardo Chaill (a valued conductor , but not necessarily the artistic director of La Scala !!! ) the seasons do not impress me much !!! Yes , the repertoire is always well-selected, but not always properly staffed by soloists !!! It's no different this time !!! Already at the inauguration of the ''STAGIONE'' season (december 7) , we are preparing for a real vocal failure in in the form of the falling pseudo-star Anna Netrebko with a ruined voice as Donna Leonora in Verdi's opera ''La Forza del Destino'' ( The Power of Destinv ) !!! I cannot understand what drives Maestro Chaill to enegage Madame Netrebko in such a demanding , cantilena role after last year's total failure of this artist as Elizabeth in Verdi's ''Don Carlos''on this stage !!! Did this year's failure of Anna Netrebko in the role of ''Gioconda'' by A. Ponchielli in Salzburg , after which she received total criticizm on the internet , give Meyer and Chaill nothing to thing to thing about ????? (!!!!!!) Still , with the stubbornness of a maniac, they clung to the fallen Netrebko and her partner Yusif Eyvasov like a Velcor to a dog's tail for Kremlin and oligarchic money from Russia and destroying the reputation of La Scala !!! Is it so difficult to understand that Anna Netrebko will never be another Callas, Tebaldi ,Gencer, Milanov, Price or Caballe in the role of Donna Leonora ( in ''The Power of Destiny'' by G.Verdi !!! ) - what is happening to Maestro Chaill !!! Dear music lovers , it's time to listen carefully to the singing of your ''favorite'' artists and not mindlessly read stupid reviews about them !!! Someone had to finally write this to you, dear music lovers , and say it to your face - I'm not going to apologize to anyone for it !!! Another failure awaiting us in the ''STAGIONE'' 2024-2025 season is Marina Rebeka as V.Bellini's ''Norma''!!! This Latvian artist with an ugly vocal manner comes from St. Petersburg , in my opinion , her is not suitable for bel canto ( Rossini, Bellini , Donizetti !!! ) although he sings this repertoire successfully. What bothersme is the typical ugly , slightly Russian heaviness in her voice - this is a bad feature of voices from Russia, Belarus, Ukraine and the Baltic countries !!! Her ''Norma'' by V.Bellini from Catania was average , as was the aria ''Casta Diva''on YT - it does not bode well for success at La Scala - but Sandra Radvanovsky is not the best current ''Norma'' !!! That'a all i have to say on this subject.

Netrebko y Amartuvshin. Muchas gracias

[@tgr-2164]

The presence of a certain Anna Netrebko at La Scala is a real failure of this theater - this lady could never sing, which she proved last year by ruining the the role of Elizabeth in Verdi's Don Carlos in Milan and recently Ponchielli's Gioconda in Salzburg - she should finally be silent instead of screaming like and old pompous cow in the pasture !!! Netrebko will never be Callas, Tebaldi, Milanov, Price or Caballe , especially in the role of Donna Leonora in the opera ''La Forza del Destino'' (The Power of Destin ) G. Verdi it is a scandal that La Scala angaged her for this cantilena rola - a real failure !!!

[@Ulysses88047]

I am missing some wonderful voices like Hasmik Grigorian or Sonya Yonceva....

Bordeaux pourrait prendre exemple sur Milan. Où sont les saisons d'antan? Aujourd'hui, c'est minable de chez minable.

[@tgr-2164]

Anna Netrebko - she's a vocal failure - there's nothing I can do about it - her vocal technique and voice emission are terrible , and the vibrato and forceful attacikof of sounds at the top of the scale are downright irritating - Netrebko's voice is an untrained , disjointed vocal ruin !!!

[@sufyanlowel4631]

Netrebko pfff
