SsteinwayS, Thank you very much for posting this. You can have no idea how hard to get classical music (especially Opera) in India. Due to scarcity of opera CD or cassette I used to listen Heavy Metal and its sub-genre. But with the help of you people living in Western Countries I can get more and more Opera recitals through internet right now , and I am very fond of beautiful and very technical soprano and contralto.

@TheSaidawium You're welcome! I spend a lot of time on my videos, so I'm glad you enjoy them! My parents are immigrants from China, but we live in Canada now so classical music is something readily available here. But I'm glad I'm able to share this wonderful stuff with all of you! :) Enjoy!

Thanks awfully for posting this.

Damrau will go down in vocal history, surely she will.

[SsteinwayS]

@Cissy97 She's very unique. Dramatic and lyric!

Aaaaaaah! Why did he cut the ending?! *Sigh* Anyway, thank you SO much for posting <3

[Lilith89ibz]

Hahahahaha No, but I would have loved to hear the ending of the note and see her fall and be carried upstairs *sigh*

[SsteinwayS]

Yeah, me too! Ah well...one can't have everything!

[SsteinwayS]

I don't know! But at least we got to hear the E-flat! We probably didn't want to listen to five minutes of applause anyway...
