I Am the Wife of Mao Tse-Tung (Nixon in China)

[missgreeneyes56]

I have never heard a performance like that.

[missgreeneyes56]

Brave and lovely. A bright future is ahead of her.

where can one find the libretto?

[LeoSupimpa]

Very good indeed!

[LeoSupimpa]

I suppose Trudy Ellen Craney in 1987 did better. But I only suppose...

Hye Jung Lee is so expressive! That might have been a little exaggerated at the two very high pitched "books", though.

[LeoSupimpa]

@Wordman67 yes! I don't think a conductor should do that on a public recorded audition. the orchestra tempos could be considered, and not so comprised.

[treblinska]

wow... what a lung!! :-))

I don't usually sign up for stuff on the internet, but this young lady has such a wonderful voice and stage presence, I have to show my admiration. I live on the east coast but plan to go and see her perform in "Nixon in China" in San Francisco in June 2012. If Miss Lee reads this, you can count on my loud applause,

This has be one of the most annoying arias in the modern rep. Good thing I don't have a pet dog.

[MrDrawlight]

Such ease, amazing execution!

[jennymacdownunder]

Hye Jung Lee's performance was absolutely stunning. I agree, she absolutely deserved to win this competition.

[wonbad]

@miracoy she's Korean and is rather atractive.

[operaticxingenue]

@miracoy Wow that's just beyond racist... and ignorant especially because she's Korean.

[brynhildur1]

I want to know why she didn't win???? She is the best contestant

The girl who won didn't have a techniqe comparted to Hye Jung's.

Hye Jung's stage prescence is much more professional than the winners.

[endiveloins]

@brynhildur1 I agree with you and find the result to be ridiculous

[MazeppaPZ]

Abolutely STUNNING!

[muscleboi4use]

WOW! So impressive!! WOW!!

[jenson7720]

This is amazing!

[boyinlalaland]

She was the best out of all the contestants!!!
