Get her to the Met ASAP. I saw her in NYC with Eve Q. + OONY in Sonnambula @ Carnegie and she was super. Top notes to spare, nice legato and a sizable voice. Her Covent Garden debut was 9/7/09 in Linda di Chamonix...recording to be released 2010 I believe. A great young find for opera.
This is truly an extraordinary performance, especially from 4:27 to the end of the aria. I don't understand why the audience members didn't shower her with flowers!
I'm proud to say that I met her during my work experience placement at the Vancouver Opera for school. I watched a all rehearsals following the opening night of Rigoletto and interviewed a lot of the cast and this included Ms. Gutierrez. I remember that she was a very, very sweet lady and she is amazingly talented. Seeing her perform live totally surpasses any youtube video of her. I would very much recommend watching a live performance by her; she's amazing, with an amazing personality.
She has one of the best voice I have ever heard!!! Her technique is flawless- what beauty, not only in her voice but reflecting out of her person. Stunning!!!!
Thanks God for Eglise! She is living proof that Opera isn't really dying after all! She is bringing up the so lowered standards of Opera Singing nowdays. Excellent Rendition! Worthy of glory with all the great divas from the past! Brava! Brava!
a eglise la escuche en el teatro de bellas artes en dic de 2007 con lucia y wow fue maravilloso mi primera opera y con una gran cantante aun recuerdo los agudos y su voz en vivo, sin duda yo escuche esos sobreagudos de su voca directos a mi oido y es lo mejor q me ha pasado eglise cantandme a la oreja.
i had the pleasure of seeing eglise in rigoletto recently and she was outstanding. she interpreted gilda so very gracefully, and innocently. she was born for this role! her voice is heavenly, it's soft and sweet and always in control of every note. what a delight to listen to and watch. she was also looking very fit and healthy. she only gets better this girl!
I had the great pleasure of hearing her live last night in Vancouver Opera's production of Rigoletto and she was amazing. Her performance was exquisite; just brilliant. Brava!
Wow!- a completely lovely voice and performance-Her elegance,ease,technical security and expressivity are reminiscent of the 'golden age' lyric coloraturas-Brava!
What a splendidly natural and pure soprano voice. The way she caresses the pitches from phrase to phrase, from note to note, is unbelievable. Her top is divine. Wow.
The sound coming from her is so amazing and glorious - I am utterly stunned every time I watch this video, and I watch it often. What a talent! What a skill! What a divine gift!
I wish I were an accomplished poet so I could communicate, in the appropriate manner, how SUBLIME this performance is. If it has not done so already, this will become one of the those legendary opera vids on youtube. This is artistic singing at its upper-most echelon. Veramente bravisisisisima!!!!!!
I think she's did a lovely job, but, it sounds like she's more of a dramatic coloratura rather than a lyric coloratura. I would love to hear her do something like Lucrezia Borgia.
YESSSSS!!!!! Especially after Washington, DC was plagued with an earth-bound production recently!!! When I get that feelin', I want some Lucrezia Borgia healin'...Eglise can definitely do it. I am sure!!!
I had the honor of seeing Ms. Gutierrez sing Elvira in Seattle Opera's production of I Puritani, and was able to meet her backstage. She is truly an astounding singer. Her technique is mind blowing, and reminds me of Joan Sutherland's. Her voice has so many beautiful colors, and she sings every one with absolute splendor.
I know that Callas does this Beautifully, but i still must say that Eglise does one of the most wonderful jobs with this that i have ever heard. The clarity, purity, and spine chilling highs all combine to make such a majestic sound. Simply amazing
Todo lo que cantas tiene el toque de perfeccion, pero caro nome y el faisan son mis preferidas,Tus triunfos los siento mios tambien,Eres tan Divina como tu mama .Felicidades Diva
Dear Eglise, I am so proud to see you as a diva already. I am also proud to have been your friend and partner while we studied singing at the same music faculty in Havana.
You should hear her live!!No recording gives her justice. And she is a very nice, humble person,too. I'm glad I heard/met her before all this...she will definitely be one of the sopranos of our modern time.
This is sooooo incredible!! This voice needs to be a household name for sure!! I have tears in my eyes and goose bumps on my arms!! That is the most gorgeous sound I have heard, and such passion, such...WOW!!
One of the finest versions of this aria out there -- she catches perfectly the mix of naivete and breathless eroticism inherit in the aria. Perfect. And the cadenza is exceptional -- for once it doesn't sound silly and ungainly.
I have rarely heard such a deeply felt and bel canto interpretation especially among recent singers. Her Sonnambula is also quite exciting. I hope she won't sing too much too fast and burn out like so many young singers. Brava
Very nice surprise. The middle voice is full, the whole voice has weight, the top notes are secure and easy. She does scoop or slide into some top notes, and can come up slightly flat if she's not careful. Real potential in many roles....not just coloratura. Early Verdi would likely suit her.....Trovatore or I Masniadieri....would love to her hear sing "Oh, Quante Volte"...Guilietta as well.
I love this woman I got to see her live a year ago in Massenet's Cendrillon in Santa Fe as the Fairy Godmother, all I have to say is watch out Cabballe, because I have never heard a pianissimo like that, absolutely glistening.
I think she has one of the most beautiful voices of any singer today. Incredible poise, perfect musicality and a shining, mature and round tone. I think she, Claycomb and Jarman are making the future brighter.
What a voice!! That IS a coloratura soprano: no shrillness, no harshness. She's got a wonderful voice, which I think is more in the lyric fach, but suits the lighter roles as well thanks to her superb technique. I think she'd be even more amazing in heavier lyric coloratura roles, because it's a very full, rich and velvety timbre, with a somewhat "heavy" tone (despite her heavenly pianissimi!). Best of all, she's also got a meaningful phrasing, a great legato and real sensibility to the melody!
WOW!!! This woman is INCREDIBLE!!! She is the revival of the Golden Age of Singing! Everything about this performance is truly world class. This singer is FIERCE. Thanks SO MUCH for posting this vid!
BRILLIANT!!! She is so great. Everything about this performance was wonderful. Her high notes were not in the slightest shrill and they were VERY well controlled. This girl is just so naturally musical. Great sense of the music's flow. Loved every second of it.
She is the cream of the crop. Wow. What a stunningly beautiful voice and amazing technique, musicality, and she's so adorable! WOW.
