Alexandrina Pendatchanska - "Mi tradì" - Don Giovanni 2005

[MrLupo23]

I like how Rene Jacobs intends Mozart!

[1777achilles]

Absolutely superb

[MrLupo23]

Beautiful singing--just perfect for this role!

[georgerannie]

Brava Alexandriana!!

[tenordramaticitm2]

Bravo for her Mi tradi!

[hibyeeee2]

Wow her voice is huge. She could sing Wagner if she wanted to.  Anyone else agree?

[tenordramaticitm2]

@hibyeeee2 No....Wagner is not for everyone!

[hibyeeee2]

@tenordramaticitm2 True but I think she could do it. She has a huge voice.

[dorothy76]

She was better at 17,already small wobble, PECATO, and who gave her the idea to do the recitativo like that it is awful, couple more years and she is out..

I had 48 years of operatoic career and 25 as voice teacher, so I think i have some idea.

[moghedien13]

@dorothy76 ugh i think she has a real interesting voice and i wanna disagree with you and hope this is a bad night, but yeah, there is a wobble and she def sounds like shes working to keep it all together.

[Flaviat57]

Great voice, but some mannerism and notes that are simply not there... I hope she realises that her beautiful voice is enough for people to notice her and that all she has to do is interpret what's on the score, and nothing else.

@Flaviat57

Do you know René Jacobs, a rather famous baroque conductor? He asks for these extra notes.

She is absolutely OK to sing this ornamentation as musicologists work after all, give her reason to do so.

[Flaviat57]

@foropera René Jacobs, the counter-tenor/conductor, might be very famous and even be a good musicologist, but adding anything to the music of Mozart is, in my modest opinion, a waste of time as it is perfect as it is. I appreciate your comment, but remain of my opinion: no need for ornamentation.

[rossinigio]

che peccato che la dizione e' approssimativa , la voce e' incantevole

[louiseandsam]

What a JOY to hear a conductor that doesn't push the soprano to sing EVERYTHING so FAST that the coloratura becomes a mess!!!!!! This girl is great!!!

[foropera]

Magical! And this ornament at 2:43 is grand!

[Schollistico]

Ok...this is how Mozart must to be sung. Amazing "fiatto", i adore her.

[dermotafan]

Brava, that's what I call singing.

[prionse]

exquisite!
