  • If you have never heard her recording of Zerbinetta in Ariadne auf Naxos....find it. It's simply amazing

  • So nice and interesting without being "NEW"... brava la Peters!

  • HOLY SMOKES! That high note in the very first verse is inhuman!! The best Doll EVER!

  • Sencillamente perfecta. Así se canta esta aria.

  • PERFEITA!

  • my favorite coloratura. The most beautiful voice color of them all. I saw her live singing gilda with Robert Merrill as rigoletto a long time ago and i will never forget it

  • I've never been overly fond of Roberta Peters, but she's WONDERFUL here! I think best Olympia I've seen/heard.

  • totally agree!

  • la mejor interpretación de la muñeca que he escuchado.

    Agudos y variaciones perfectas.

    Así se canta, tecnica maravillosa y belleza absoluta.

  • Love those glasses, best I've seen on youtube.

  • This whole production looks fascinating! I wouldn't mind seeing more.

  • OMG nobody comes close today

  • I also think she was the best queen of the night though not a big voice admittedly

  • It doesn't matter when the notes are that high

  • @schmup53 The size of the voice is not that important. I saw her debut as Zerlina at the old Met and the audience were crazy about her voice and looks, me included JRT

  • Brava Peters and thank you Coloraturafan!!!

  • This is awesome! Thank you so much for posting!

    Ms. Peters was a first rate USA soprano for her time. This is proof!

    I am not sure what this interpretation was for, but it is fantastic and captures the story perfect.

    Ms. Peters was a top rate soprano for so many years here in the USA. She is very young here, and was just starting out her career.

    Awesome!

    Thank you!

  • A bit screechy peachy.... Nice variations though.

  • This interpretation is, for me, perfection. Peters voice and dramatic input just bring Offenbach's doll to life in the way that he must surely have intended.

    I have had much pleasure from the other postings in this thread of "Les Oiseaux " but this is the one that does it for me.

    Thank you.
