Thank you so much for uploading Julie Taymor's adaptation of "The Magic Flute"! It's my favorite rendition of this opera. I loved everything about it.

I was wondering if you had the clips of Tamino that you could post. We're doing Flute this spring in English and I was wondering what the translations would sound like.

I'm also a fan of Anna Netrebko and I know what's missing or wrong about her technique.

I also sent this to a few people. The technique is called the Open Throat Technique. She is doing the close throat technique (wrong technique). You can achieve an Open Throat Technique by keeping a Stable Larynx Position. To get the placement in singing, many teachers will tell you to yawn while raising your cheeks. That is wrong because it closes and squeezes the throat. The correct technique is to yawn while NOT raising the cheeks and feel the back of the throat open. If you raise your cheeks while yawning, you are closing the throat, thus, you cannot achieve overtones and the sound becomes strangled. If you will not raise your cheeks while yawning, you are opening the back of the throat, thus relaxes the face and throat muscles to give way for the natural voice to occur.
