  • Breath-takingly achingly gorgeous. It hurts to listen yet I must listen.

  • Obviously she has an amazing voice and I like Gheorghiu so much, but this wasnt really her best performance,,,

  • stunning voice. shes my new favourite!

  • These women have been given a gift. Life wouldn't be worth living without them.

  • @marenzio01 vielen dank!

  • Tarnation!

    She sings real good!

  • also her emotion of acting^^ too

  • I like her amazing voice^^

  • wonderfull voice

  • beautiful voice, Romania has talent, ''who or what is Romania u ask lol''

  • She sang so beatifully that seems like she is and lived like Madama Butterfly herself.

  • Absolutely beautiful.

  • I LOVE AND WANT MY WIFE. I MISS MY LIFE. X

  • What, to me, is so wonderful about this performance is how well and deeply she knows, feels, and shares the meaning of every word, and the inner script she has moving through her entire performance, even after her 'voice' releases. Her performance here is remarkably moving and inspired.

    Singingly, VOICING YOU! Sheryl at RakVocal~~ :-)

  • at 3.38 I nearly cried!!

  • Beautiful voice prima "Donna" need bit more attention for pronunciation

    like word " Butterfly"

  • wonerful!

  • No me gusta, y no voy a dar explicaciones del por qué, bueno diré una, su canto no me llega, no me dice nada....

  • @Maripudelmonaco jajaja por lo visto es usted una persona muy traumada y muy acomplejada verdad?? mire que casualidad, volverme a encontrar con otro de sus absurdos comentarios en otro video que milagrosamente no es de Netrebko, segun usted todas las cantantes son muy inutiles para trasmitir sentimientos al momento de cantar....usted da pena en verdad, con todo respeto y sin animos de ofender, me parece usted patetica.

  • @Maripudelmonaco estoy de acuerdo... como que va muy rápido no?

  • si, me parece que va un poco demasiado rápido, pero es lo que da tanta expresión a su interpretación.

  • Dont cry for me im already dead...

  • beautiful ... thank you .. xxx

  • The tempo is a bit wrong and she is supposed to be a little more gentle...

  • waves upon waves of goosebumps at the end.

  • I need 82 bullets!!!

  • MUSIC IS THE ULTIMATE FORM OF MAGIC

  • (continua)

    Un poco por bromear,y un poco por no morir al primer encuentro.

    Y él,un poco ansioso, llamará y llamará:

    “Pequeñita, mi pequeña esposa, perfume de verbena”,

    los nombres que solia llamarme.

    Todo esto sucederá, te lo prometo.

    Guárdate tus temores,

    ¡yo con segura fe lo espero!

  • Un bello día veremos levantarse un hilo de humo en el extremo confín del mar.Después aparece el barco, el barco es blanco.Entra en el puerto,truena su saludo.¿ves?¡ha venido!Yo no voy a buscarlo,yo no.Me pongo ahí en lo alto de la colina y espero,espero mucho tiempo.Y no me importa la larga espera.Salido de entre la multitud de la ciudad,un hombre sube por la colina.¿quien sera?¿quien sera?y cuando este aqui¿que dira?Llamara:Butterfly,desde lo lejos.y yo sin responder,estare escondida.

  • Her facial expression at 3:33 gets me every time. Need some help from opera learned. I've never seen this opera nor any other for that matter. When she is singing this, does she know that the guy is going to betray and take their child away with his new wife? If not, she should be happy is so she should be very sad.

  • @euqip

    When she is singing, Cio Cio-San, she sings with sorrow, yet with a trinkle of hope that her beloved Pinkerton will someday return. He does, yet not to remain with her, but accopanied by another wife. An American born one. It's quite a tragic lovestory.

    -H-

  • @TmaadHMD Thank you for the info. Like I said I know almost nothing about Opera but somehow stumbled on to this and have now watched it many times. It never fails to give me the chills and I really didn't know what it was about. There is some strong force in Opera that is not present in other kinds of music. I am going to try to learn more about it.

  • Ver a esta mujer interpretar el dolor de Cio CIo San cuando su marido norteamericano vuelve con su esposa real es extremadamente doloroso. Esta cancion sucede antes de que Cio Cio San se suicide por el. Veanle la cara a Angela Gheoghiu donde muestra todo el dolor espiritual por entregar a su esposo y su hijo a una mujer pasajera. Obra de Giaccomo Puccini. Gracias por colocarla. Desde san Juan de los Morros, Venezuela.

  • @cablepelaove Estas equivocado. Esta aria corresponde a la espera de su marido desde norteamérica, Cio Cio San todavía no sabe que su esposo se casó con otra y le va a quitar a su hijo. Esta hablando con su criada Suzuki sobre cómo se imagina el encuentro con su marido, de ahí la esperanza en su mirada..

    Aquí te dejo la letra.

  • I really can't understand what is wrong with some people. Those 80 people can probably sing this aria better than Angela and they are all waiting to show us how it's soposed to sound! Bring it on!!! Let's hear you... ANGELA IS BORN FOR MADAMA BUTTERFLY AND TOSCA!!! Tastes will always be different, but you CAN NOT dislike this only if you always hear Callas or Tebaldi in your head... It's ridiculous... Do you want opera to die with your divas that are "irreplaceable"?

  • @User320g I agree with you. Every diva will interpret differently, there are as many different renditions of this aria as there are sopranos that have sung it. The divas of the past are long gone. We must make room for new divas. Although in Butterfly it will always be Callas for me. It was the first rendition I ever heard of this particular aria, but I don't feel a need to bash Gheorghiu's rendition for that reason. She did it her way and this is her take on it. She has a career for a reason...

  • @Salomes7Veils I ment the exact same thing. My favourite Butterfly is Mirela Freni, favourite Norma - Callas, Onegin - Hvorostovsky etc.... But that's not the reason to neglect other artist in those roles. They all have something special.... You sed something great: SHE HAS CAREER FOR A REASON!!! They all exist for a reason. I'm an opera singer too (although still very young) and I don't have a career. That's for a reason too, and I admit that... :)

  • @User320g I am also an operasinger. Fresh out of the opera academy, with a master degree. I am 30 years old. Perfect time to begin a career, with my fach. I wish you all the best with your career. :)

  • @User320g Maybe it is not the way she sings, maybe they do not like the videoquality ;)

  • This remember me at malcolm in the middle... poor jamie ;-)

  • toccante.. Bravísimo!

  • She made a mistake with the rhythm... but she still sounds great I guess, so it's ok.

  • This is nothing like Spiderman.

  • @GuardianSoulkeeper Ah, another Coupling fan...

  • JŐL TUDOM ?GYÖRGY ANGÉLA?

  • NINCS JELZŐ...LEGFELJEBB A "CSODÁS"

  • NINCS JELZŐ...

  • too FAST

  • bellissima opera di puccini questa e l'italia che vogliamo

  • bellissima opera di puccini

  • superb....

  • extraordinario !!!!1

  • great colour , great voice she need work on her acting and on her singing technique if she wants to be a match of Calas. Really happy to see her

  • @27athenian she's not suppose to be acting much here in this setting, I personally think she did a very fine job

  • Comment removed

  • who is conducting?!??! Famous face and I just can't grasp his name...tip of my tongue. Who can help me?!?!!!

  • my tears are my gratitude

  • Disgusting, singing an inherently sad song and converting it into a happy meal, nver seen a video of callas singing it but at least you could feel it was so tragic, and you feel that she feels it too.

  • @Executor009 She is happy because her love is coming home you numpty...it's only later in the song its sad because she realises the love of her life has got married!

  • C'est très beau, et pourtant, un petit peu rapide.....

  • Dont cry for me, I'm already dead.

  • What a beautiful voice. Great rendition BUT she looks too happy. This is a very sad part of the opera and she should act out the scene with more conviction of losing her love. If Camen Monarcha had sung this aria you would see it in her eyes and face. The despair the loss.

  • @pbernier34 I don't think the character should be sad, becuase she still has the hope of seeing again Pinkerton, her love. That hope is tragic for us, tht we know he will never love her again; but this aria is full of blind hope and naif. I think it's a really good performance and i listen to it every morning when i wake up.

    Congratulation for the uploader!!!

  • she sing like Britney Spears :<

  • NO HAY PALABRAS CADA VEZ QUE LO VEO ES MAS HERMOZO

  • I'm singing this aria for my upcoming recital. It's so beautiful, and full of heart-wrenching emotion. I love it. <3

  • meravigliosa Opera.

  • elle est SUBLIME! tant d"émotion!

  • This lady has an instrument like no other. I absolutely love her.

  • great Italian enunciation

  • Eh gato gato, mulo ! que lo que me poneeee no me vas a comparar esto con una buena cumbia de los pibes choros guachin !!! alta gata la que canta tiene altas teta ehhh no se retoven manjines recatenseeeee

  • Che bello.  Romania the best :)))))

  • i am writing an essay on this currently!

  • @sirdobby AS AM I lol

  • Too fast. Too fast. Too fast.

    from Italy

  • 1) Too fast

    2) Did she study some italian before? I don't think so ...

    3) Yes, I don't like this performance at all.

  • @curi0usm1nd You are dumb... enough said!

  • @operageek1011 But you didn't answer a single point.

    'nuff said bro.

  • too fast and crappy diction

  • I was shocked...

  • Se c'è un cantante che ci può consolare di non appartenere all'era della Callas è lei... grazie e mille benedizioni!

  • @Sofoclaudio come? Gheoghiu e "la copie" della Callas.

    Purtroppo io preferisco l'originale...

  • @bodiloto dire che la brava Gheorghiu possa consolarci del non appartenere all'era della Callas non significa preferirla a Lei... inoltre della Divina non ci restano che registrazioni e nulla può essere paragonato ad un ascolto dal vivo. Con profondo rispetto.

  • Comment removed

  • @bodiloto onorato, grazie. Ciao!

  • She's not Maria Callas... But she has a great voice...I think it is a bit too fast...

  • @Marghelicious05

    No one can be like Callas!

    Angela is doing her best and does not need to be compared to the devine Maria Callas.

  • Brava.una prestazione veramente ottima,

  • me gustaria saber porque junta las manos al comienzo en esa forma tan particular.

  • Beautiful

  • One of the best, magical

  • 65 Aliens do not appreciate Opera.

  • I am thankful that I do not "know" so much about opera that I could point out all that is technically wrong with this. To me this is beautiful and nothing is wrong with it.

    Her facial expressions (especially at 3:31) are so right for this tragic storyline.

  • holy shit.. wtf i .. i shed a tear.

  • brenmuk, you mean: Ce voce frumoasă și ce femeie frumoasă!

  • Don't cry for me, I'm already dead.

  • i cried

  • da uno a dieci:6

  • mejor lo hace Maria Callas!!

  • @Tirrems peste Maria Callas nu e nimeni, poate peste vreo 200 de ani

  • This made my testicles vibrate... wow.

  • Wow, she is really rushing it, isn't she? Poor orchestra.

  • exquisite

  • how do people dislike this?

  • Comment removed

  • MADE IN ROMANIAN:.....................­...

  • made di che? ma per favore....

  • What an instrument!

  • Beautiful

  • Una bella interpretación

  • Przepiękna aria, wspaniały głos.

  • perfect

  • Okay. First, I want that dress. Second, I want to learn about the errors some of you note. I agree it just doesn't sound as "right" as the others posted here on YT. If I don't watch to video and just listen I can almost hear the orchestra's playing not really matching her singing. Why would this be allowed to happen? I want to learn. Thanks in advance!

  • Mama mia.... Bellissima !

  • Excellent! Just beautiful, one of my favorites!

  • I agree this is a little bit too fast but still excellent. Angela is a superb singer and a very good actor.

  • This is one of my favorites and she is superb... Arif

  • one beautiful day we will be together

  • Reda exact ce isi dorea, cred, Puccini de la personajul sau: naivitate, sinceritate si gratie.

  • omg... she made me cry with her singing...

  • This is Romania

  • And this is what we call MUSIC!!!

  • What's the rush? This is a reflexive, pensive monologue not a frantic narrative.

  • Un amour trahi et je pleure de n'avoir pas autant aimé....

  • Lei canta benissimo, ed è molto meglio della terribile Netrebko. Oltracciò mi sembra una donna intelligente, seria e carina. Mi è piacuto molto la sua performance. Brava.

  • Angela is alive, she is great and she is going to be the best.. I have the privilege to say tomorrow or next week i am going to the Opera to heard Angela sing, people always say the past was better but is no 100% true.

  • @DaniellefromChile How was she??!

  • she goes way too fast she should hold the notes a lil' longer... at times it sounds like maria callas but she shouldn't go so fast

  • @arnaudrcs I agree. Maybe she tries to follow the orchestra instead of vice-versa.

  • @arnaudrcs im glad we have professional operas on the youtube social network....

  • If you listen to Maria Pellegrini sing it, you may then have a point of reference to compare great singing from simply bearable. But Callas is unbeatable as expected.

  • @ydraki i agree with you no one sings this song like callas

  • In che lingua sta cantando, scusate?

  • She has one of the most scintillating voices of this Century. She sends shivers down my spine.

    There is no doubt that she will join those sopranos of world renown who have gone before her.

  • Lei grande!! è fot una del meglio nella voce di interpretazione questa prestazione insieme al Veronica Villarroel che è inoltre brillante

  • Angela G = Bellisima! <3

  • Hello, My name's Barney Gumble.

  • Play it loud!

  • She sung it exquisite.

  • increible ^^

  • magnifique!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Is among the best performances of this talented artist.

  • Un bello dia veremos levantarse un hilo de humo en el extremo confín del mar. Y después aparece la nave

  • Excelente. No se porque me atrae de manera la Opera, siendo mis gustos musicales decantados por el Rap, pero dejo sin pensar dos veces mi otro gusto musical tan extremo por esto.

  • Conducted a little fast ;s, But  What voice, perfecta!

  • SUBLIME!!!!!!!!!

  • She is the best!!!!

  • @KeyserGalt Why?

  • ME PONGO DE PIE........

  • wonderfull amazing thank's angela

  • this soprano has a voice that's truly divine

  • Beautiful & amazing music, performance!

  • I've heard it many many times... Beautiful voice, beautiful aria ...

  • omg, i cried like a baby, what a beautiful performance.

  • @MissLilium try Cristina  Ciorba

  • Esto me supera no puedo expresar la emoción que me da, Es maravilloso

  • This piece is very beautiful unfortunally 55 people are deaf!

  • This is an absolutely frightful performance filled with unacceptable errors. She speeds up and slows down at her own choosing which throws off the entire orchestra. She also also chooses her own pronunciation. At 2:34 she sings "Par non marone" What does that even mean? It's heart breaking to hear such a beautiful aria butchered so carelessly.

  • ugh. she's incredible. one of the few that I can listen to and be truly pleased. rare! but lovely interpretation!

  • canta superb...nu aud nici o diferenta cu maria calas.

  • Any critique of Angela (or any other singer) should really begin with the words, "I think..." or "In my opinion". Broad declarations that bash someone's immense talent reek of bitterness.

    This is very subjective. Many great opera singers, conductors, directors, and patrons agree with me... and I think she's great.

  • CÁLLATE Y HAZ SILENCIO, MUNDO. CON TUS SONIDOS DE BULLA Y DISTORSIÓN!!! Y ES CON GRACIA COMO REPRESENTO-PROMOCIONO ÉSTA CANCIÓN (HERMOSO ATARDECER HAY EN EL AHORA).

  • Beyond horrendous. The audience was very polite and applauded her performance when they should have walked out after the third note. I hope this woman has the decency to never perform this aria again.

  • @KeyserGalt -we understand your opinion.you said that before.Go over it ,please.Fortunately, the rest of us think something diferently.

  • @emotion70 Go over it? Ok...Opera promoters are desperate to have a beautiful woman sing this aria. This woman is somewhat attractive and can play the part, but she can't sing the aria. All her beauty and emotion are worthless because she doesn't have the talent.

  • @KeyserGalt well, I feel that way about lady gay-gay! Notice I don't rant and am rude over her videos.

    GO AWAY TROLL!

    ANyway I LOVE her voice.

  • Beautiful voice.

  • All of you highly-educated opera experts should get together and have a contest to determine who knows the most about the quality of this. Meanwhile, my fellow philistines and I will continue to listen to it and receive the great joy and pleasure it conveys.

  • @euqip Bravo!

  • Comment removed

  • I notice that she does a lot of Verismo, I think it fits her voice perfectly and I also loved her Zerlina in Don Giovanni
