The Mimi's Italian is laughable - full of diphthongs and heavy single consonants. Plus she flaps her jaw with every syllable. My God, who trains these people? Tenor not bad - kind of a thin sound.....and very notey, not Puccini at all.
An opera is not a concert. If you want a voice, go for the great tenors in concert. As a "show" this is brilliant !! Young people playing young people. Acting excellent. Went and ordered the DVD
yes you are right....very good ear and i agree they have potential both of them and they are handsome people...but they do need more technical prep...
Just watched this on the Ovation channel. I'm usually not into this stuff but I couldn't pull myself away from the TV, it was absolutely beautiful and heart breaking.
I saw this opera at The Anvil in Basingstoke this evening - I thought it was incredible. I could feel my eyes pricking with tears during the final scenes...
Not a fan... Odd interperetation. Overly heavy... it doesn't flow.

Quite a voice of hers but not her singing, no precision. And her high notes aren't sung, she yells.
Though the tenor and her might have a future by preparing a lot more, both are nice voices.
