Talk about "when OPERAtunity knocks..." Villazon was supposed to be on the TV broadcast but when he canceled, the Polish wonderboy sang the CRAP out of it! lol
At last she has found a worthy partner. Although the voice is not warm/lush, it is clear & intelligentkly used- sort of a Jerry Hadley meets N. Gedda. Lets hope they perform more together.
Traviata - Ms. Netrebko displayed ample power, coloratura bravura with a marvelous tone Having recently heard Natalie Dessay sing Sempre Libera at the Met Gala, one was impressed by the legato nature of Netrebko's portray in contrast to Dessay's intentional staccato, fragmented phrasing interpretation. Having also seen photos of Fleming in her current Violetta at the ROH, one can only marvel at Netrebko's resilience, endurance and commitment to bel canto opera.

Brava Anna anche se meno bella rispetto a prima del suo matrimonio... Però che soprano... Ebravo anche Piotr.. Verranno a noi sull'aure i loro sospiri ardenti... grazie
@hillbillytenorino It is a beautiful idea. I know it would be a trip of my dreams. But before I can afford to cross the ocean, I must wait patiently for Mr.Beczała to sing in Poland again.

Hmm, I'm not seeing what the fuss about Beczala is all about, he has a slightly choked quality. I think Calleja has far more freedom in his voice and is the preferrable Edgardo.
I quite like Netrekbo's voice, but it's not for Lucia at all.
I'm going to have to go with three stars, the notes were all there, but the fire wasn't.
I like the set quite alot though, gives a real sense of impending doom.
PIOTR IS AMAZING ALL POLAND SHOULD BE VERY PROUD OF HIM!!

No characterization of the voice, just plain depthless popera.
