Ma in teatro non si sente!

Potenza della DECCA.....

[Homoclassicus]

This recording is live, it's not an excerpt from her new DECCA album.

This is beautiful singing, full of expression and color. Why are you so angry? Did you have a bad day? Go pick on someone else.

Hmm...operissimo84 made a statement about how she can't be heard in the theatre...what's that all about? Must every operatic voice be heard in a 2,000 - 4,000 seat barn? Most of the stuff she'll sing wasn't meant to be played in houses that large, anyway. Can't we agree that she's got a beautifully produced voice? Give props where props are due.

@operissimo84 Non e vero. La ho visto cantare al Chicago Lyric nel spettacolo Pearl Fishers e la ascolto perfectamente!

Absolutely beautiful..

Just heard her sing ELISIR in Chicago and she was excellent. The voice sounds terrific in a big house: Chicago is huge! AN excellent technique and good taste with no mannerisms.

Just saw her as Musetta in La Boheme, the movie. (with Villazon, Netrebko, etc., 2008) Demanding presence; terrific acting, all to add to a lovely lyrIcal soprano voice. Named 2005 Winner of the BBC Singer of the World Competition in Cardiff, Wales, she has since garnered prizes for her recordings. Bravo, Nicole!

beautiful.

[madziua90]

she's very good... what a voice!

[OperaLover84]

I agree -- I hate this idea that if the voice can't be heard that well in an F-ing HUGE hall that it's not "big enough." The opera houses these days are too large! The old houses were more like today's Broadway theaters.

[vonDali]

deep she sounds like Moffo - unfortunately Nicole Cabell's high notes and coloraturas are not good.

[ZanthiaKhala]

what a incredible voice!

[gransasso101]

very pretty leggiero. I think it reminds me of Moffo a little bit. She's polished.
