Anna Netrebko - Quel guardo di cavaliere - Don Pasquale - 2006

[biutzaaa]

great actress!



[LuxaDiamond]

omy goodnessssssssss gorgeousssss and powerful!

[MultiZahl]

Es ist völlig richtig--die Bezeichnung "LA DIVINA" trifft nur für Maria Callas zu!!

Nebenbei hat Anna Netrebko das hohe DES am Ende von Norinas Kavatine

ausgelassen.

[jamm6274]

Sublime!

[operafan0anegnd]

Absolutely delightful! Captures the spirit of the role perfectly! Love you, Anna.

[Falstaff1000]

La Divina! 

[spqrmor]

@Falstaff1000 La Divina is an attribute of Maria Callas, I would say she's La Bellissima.

[anastasia7536]

@spqrmor Right !

[Cissy97]

Oh God, this was TONS BETTER than the 2010 performance!

Netrebko's voice has deteriorated. Became MUCH MORE self-conscious....

[mabemawi]

WoW! Jumping around like that and then sing like that, too....just: WoW!

[eugesang]

umwerfend fantastisch!!!

[boltoht]

gorgeous!

[yngtxtopetro]

The way she sings, she gives me goosebumps!

[thomastmwc]

lots of notes are imprecise :(

but still I like Netrebko as a friendly person

[79barkingspider]

@thomastmwc  Try singing this aria while reclining or sitting and see how many imprecise notes you sing.

[thomastmwc]

@79barkingspider a lot

[napoleone691]

non sapevo che Norina facesse il mestiere...

[kitchavez]

Her warmth and charm is just outstanding!

[sopranomagic]

BRAVA!!! I never thought of Anna as a soubrette but she sings the hell out of this aria!! Well done!!

[tonyhan0903]

@sopranomagic

She actually has rich low notes and that makes her good soubrette but her coloratura is sluggish for this kind of bel canto role.

[55555Felix]

ahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa others others of this Don Pasquale !!!

the second act : "un uomo ...!!! un uomo !!!... FUGGIAAAAAAAAAAAMO!!!"

AHAHAH

[orewa14]

Even on a cell phone recording, the projection is great. Spqrmor's poem points out a certain magic. Lively bubbling performance.

[Maggielicious21]

thanx coloraturafan, i love to see her on youtube, i just hope one day i could actually see her on stage

[boltoht]

I love this in her voice. One of my favorite roles she sings!!

[ad80ad]

Beautiful aria, beautiful singer, beautiful woman and beautiful poem by spqrmor, that reproduces perfectly the atmosphere of the stage. I don't know you...but now I get better that before...

BTW...these are the recordings one has to listen, to realize how much powerful Netrebko voice was (2006). She OVERBLOWS the orchestra here. Yes...how much powerful WAS, because now (2010) her voice is three times more powerful than before. ;-)

[Glenmed]

Anna Netrebko is wonderful.

[patjan92]

@Glenmed Wonderful indeed! She leaves it all out there on the stage - pure delight. The Met audience is in for quite a treat this coming November. Can't wait.

Thanks, Barry.

[lassisimo]

Very charming acting and she sings here really beautiful with wealthy tone. I know- it´s trendy to give caustic comments about her. There are actually some parts which she sang with lousy results far away from her standart, but this is a fine example for her justified career. I like it . Thanks for posting it ! :o))

[spqrmor]

Beautiful magical Fairy

Singing on stage canape',

Pillows're mixed up with bedding

Stockings're put on in the air.

Her shapely legs are frozen

In gorgeous state of battement,

Her trills an' passages 're amazing

Her acting's perfect and gallant.

[09avenger]

@spqrmor Thank you for your beautiful poems! I think comments on Anna's pages would be much less exciting without them! Keep up the good job!

[serenaluce]

@09avenger Absolutely! I couldn't agree more with you! Wonderful poems for the wonderful singer - Anna Netrebko! Both bravi!:-)
