Beautifully sung. Her performance compares quite favorably with those of Callas, Sutherland, and Sills. Unlike Netrebko, who simply butchers the role.

Perfekt stimme mit fantastich coloratura.

@Masteroftheopera...... I agree to disagree. Why? Number one June Anderson has had no formal period ( well not the way Callas and Sutherland did in music conservatories) and yet she was (and kind of is) a huge bel canto exponent. And number two her Desdemona, Gilda, and Leonora are timeless. In my mind her lack of trill is the major flaw in her renditions.

I love it.

June had some great roles - Lucia, Sonnambula, Mozart's Konstanza, Marguerite in Faust, etc. Her bel canto technique was glorious. But she had no Verdi training & as such couldn't sing Violetta. This performance finds her in better shape but she really is no Violetta when you compare the expressive singing of Callas, Moffo, Sutherland & Sills. Also, that colorful almost punk outfit! She looks like Madonna in a 1986 concert
She's really one of the very fee singers in modern times that sang (sing) the coloratura LEGATO... Sutherland, Callas, and June. She did not "Inflate: her sound. So, she looses some warmth in the top G, A, Bb, but that is also why her Acuti are SPECTACULAR. It's a natural sound. I value that a great deal.
