She is just abssolutely great.

Brava Eglise! Your performance is just wonderful and you are lovely in that unique costume! How I wish I could be in London to hear you in person!

The timbre is too dark.

Ah, alas, "He doth protest too much." Suggest listening to ELIZABETH RETHBERG, ANITA CERQUETTI, and VIRGINIA ZEANI, just to open the window to the real ART of SINGING. Also reading, THE TWILIGHT OF BEL CANTO by Leonardo di Ciampa

@MrSkylark1 If your EMINENT critic EVER stood on stage and sang and EVER had a singing lesson in his life I MIGHT sit up and take notice! But as most are nothing short of frustrated wanna-be-singers and performers themselves who NEVER made the grade and spent the REST of their pathetic lives breaking down the ones who DID make the grade, Mr Paul Hume means NOTHING in my life and his comments even less! Get a LIFE and stand on the stage YOURSELF and perform and THEN make comments.

@MrAndredekock

This is precisely the reason the EMINENT critic PAUL HUME stated in 1973, "Singers (the ones you indicate except for Bjorling, who does not belong in the same category of the rest) and singing, are in trouble. It is "IMPOSSIBLE to hear ANY who CAN SING all the notes of the role in "TUNE, TIME and the

DYNAMIC MARKINGS the COMPOSER "specified." The applause given for SECOND and THIRD RATE singers for mediocrity is a strong indication that audiences do NOT KNOW GREAT singing...

[MrAndredekock]

When it comes to the true bel canto repertoire I inadvertently always find myself comparing a coloratura with Sills and asking the questions: Is the interpretation as convincing and moving as Sills' always was? Do the embellishments flow with the score? Is the agility fast and effortless and do the trills really curl your toes? Ms Gutierrez sang a beautiful and really moving rendition here, but she didn't live up to the high standards set by the queen of coloratura (in my opinion) Beverly Sills.

[MrAndredekock]

@MrSkylark1 Isn't it just WONDERFUL that some BAD teachers are teaching the ART of GOOD COVERING! So Ms Gutierrez joins the ranks of the other BADLY COVERED singers, like Sutherland, Sills, Moffo, Gruberova, Freni, Caballe, to name just a few sopranos; Bjorling, Gedda, Krause, Pavarotti, Domingo, Vargas, to name just a few tenors. Then of course you were personally there when Tetrazzini sang to 10 000 without a microphone and so you KNOW that everyone heard her without a problem? OH PLEASE!

She was absolutely amazing in Cendrillon in Santa Fe. That was the first time we had heard her in person and she blew us away. The costumes were like Edith Head on drugs LOL, outrageous Mae West outfits and she seemed to really enjoy them. I understand she recently sang that in London in the Santa Fe production. Of course the amazing thing about that production is that Joyce di Donato sang Cendrillon in it as well. What a cast and what a great Pelly production.
