La Sonnambula - Ekaterina Siurina - dress rehearsal

[SqueakyIri]

I really enjoy her timbre, but is she a coloratura? In other clips I've seen of her, she doesn't seem to have the high eb's.

I was in this production, I have never experienced something so wonderful.

Saw this opening night at the Detroit Opera House...wonderful theatre, wonderful production, wonderful performers, 'tis a wonderful life...BRAVISSIMI!!!

[JudahBenHur]

Also note that Siurina is not giving this her all at this rehearsal, as she is of course conserving her voice for LO SPETTACOLO.

[bradoperaman]

the voice is lovely, agile but too light

[operagirl81]

p.s. Anyone wanna see a wonderful performance by her, pick up Mozart's La Clemenza di Tito- Paris Opera (1991) Her voice is like crystal. :)

[operagirl81]

I have that!! Her voice is like crystal!! She is perfect in Tito!! The best I have yet to see play Servilia.

[operagirl81]

I love Ekaterina Siurina and I feel bad now that I didn't see this production!! Please bring her back again DOH!!!

These 2 just sang the Pearl Fishers at San Diego Opera. Siurina is good, but at times sounds a bit inconsistent, but she was good for the role, and FAR BETTER than other Russian sopranos we've had. Castronovo is simply fantastic. Consistent voice top to bottom. His Je crois is the best I've heard. The sets are so good that they often "out performed" the singers; not Castronovo.

[paulostroff99]

Soloblueeyes-He is (Charles Castronovo) indeed excellent

[ixkey]

[margotska]
