Che fatica... Quanta aria e quante fissità. Proprio brutta.

@vocalissimo1 I'd like to disagree and say that you're being awfully critical, but you're exactly right. I mean, I have only love for Eglise - none of her contemporaries compare - but I do agree with your critiques about the tempo and her deliberation.

The trouble with this cabaletta is that, if you take it too slowly, it sounds like a plod. The oom-pah/oom-pah accompaniment bogs down very quickly and the excitement is lost. Also, in this clip Guttierez is quite cautious and studied in her ornamtation which robs the music of its sponataneity.

Sloppy. Maybe she's tired. Perhaps overbooked/ Happens.

credo sia una vocina piccolissima....un po fibrosa...

At last a singer who in addition to all her wonderful accomplishments has taken the trouble to learn how to sing a proper trill... lovely and I can't wait to her hear more. Looks like a return to phrasing and a revival of Bel Canto is on the way !

@coloraturafan Correction: I thought you were talking the high note in the middle cadenza, which is beautiful. The last one is an F indeed!!!
Did you say damage because the voice became more colorful and beautiful and full and more musical and better high notes and gorgeous pianissimi and great musicianship.Well, in my dictionary her singing is what Opera should be and when she sings Bel Canto she is a queen. I think this voice get's better and better every time I hear it and that is a sign of hard work and patience. Brava Eglise.

This is the kind of singing that everyone says is dead. Omg! This woman is a truly spectacular artist!!! This is the Golden Age of Opera REBORN in Eglise Gutierrez!!! I think I will be able to go to Miami to catch her Traviata and I am so excited! BRAVA!!!!
