Sondra Radvanovsky - Tacea la notte placida - Il Trovatore - 2011

[vocalissimo1]

The worst performance of the cabaletta I've ever heard - as flat as a tack! The fast vibrato in alt is also quite unpleasant. The final note sounds more like a trill than the secure and controlled note it should be. If she is the "best we have today" then we have indeed fallen on hard times.

I love this singer so much!!!! I am such a fan. I love the way she goes to her high notes without any kind of a break in strength. I hope they bring her back soon.

She should have gotten way more applause for this. SImply amazing. I wonder if todays audiences even appreciate what they are hearing?

@tristanchord85 Watching on HD in a movie theater, the MET audience seemed to go crazy with delight. Sondra glowed with the recepetion. She can not return to the MET soon enough!

Her voice is excellent. I have rarely seen so well. I think there are some things together: their exceptional constitution, which naturally crystal clear voice with brilliant highs, big game talent and - of course there are great colleagues such as Dmitry Hvorostovsky and Marcelo Alvarez.

This is really a particularly beautiful shot.

I simply can't explain why this makes me cry by the bucketfull. Every. Time.

Simply the best we have today. Thank you Mme. Radvanovsky for reminding us what a Verdi singer is supposed to sound like.
