I'm in love :o)

She's my favourite mezzo and this aria is one of her highest performances. I do want her to keep singing Rossini, hope she's not really gonna stop doing it

@Sochilinda but it is not so important, im just told my opinion she has a really good techics :-) She just never was a really coloratura.

[bpetii1]

@Sochilinda Yeah it is reasonable, i think it , too. I think, she never was a coloratura. Btw. it is amazing that she could sing many coloratura roles despite she is soprano. I was just saying that her technics is very good. Im not surprised that it difficult to her. Because it is very difficult (or impossible) for a lyrics-dramatic soprano. Its understandable. We all know that coloraturas sing Lucia's role. Despite all this I love Anna Netrebko, her voice, her performance, personality.

[Sochilinda]

@bpetii1 well, anna herself explained that she coulnd't do the aria like it should be because it was still difficult for her. which is reasonable since she is not a coloratura soprano like we all know and you stablish yourself.

I like Elina Garanca! She is one of my favourites! She has beautiful voice and her technics is good. One thing I dont like it. Elina Garanca is a little bit moderate to me, i think, she could sing with more passion, with more emotion, dynamic. But I like her, and her high notes are really good. Lower voices are sometimes a little bit nasally, but it doesnt matter to me. I just like her.

@Sochilinda I don't completely agree with you. Anna Netrebko is originally 'only' soprano, and not coloratur-soprano. She sing coloratur roles because she has such a high notes that an average soprano couldnt sing out. Anna Netreko is between lyrical and dramatic soprano. She's not a coloratur-soprano, she just has very good high notes, and very good technics. So the problem is not with her technics. She is not a coloratura.

6 years on from the Cardiff Singer of the World Competition and the voice has certainly developed beautifully. But despite the comment above about machine gun coloratura, Bartoli's agility is perfect, with every note accentuated and her trills are excellent as well. Here Garanca has fine interpretive skills, but technically, although her agility is pretty good and in fact one of the best of the current mezzos, NO-ONE can touch Bartoli on that score. Her top note was in tune this time. So brava.

I've always liked Elina's singing. I've only seen her live once, in Cenerentola at the Met. I am sorry she has moved away from this high, fast-moving repertoire, because it suits her so well.

@pfenixignited I think is more because she is so young and still needs time to perfect this aria, she will have to sing the higher coloratures intead of the lower ones at some point, because that's the impresive thing about this aria. But since she has enough time to do that. Also Anan Netrbko doesn't sing the hight notes lucia di lammermoor, because tecnically she is not yet there.
