I didn't really like Netrebko until very recently. However, one thing cannot be denied. Since her earlier years, and especially since her pre-pregnancy times, she has evolved imensely, bost vocally and, most importantly, dramatically. I used to loathe her shallow and unimaginative interpretations of arias that she would put together just for the sake of their sex appeal. I believe that she has changed. I might be wrong, but I think that Anna Bolena was a true turning point in her career.

Penosa interpretación, el fraseo es pésimo, la voz carente de contrastes y sutileza, esta señora no sabe cantar Mozart. Y la escenografía, al menos lo que aquí se ve, tal mala como la soprano.

MAGNIFICA ANNA, COMO SIEMPRE!!!

[HeidelbergSoprano]

@Onegin65 I'm curious (I'm a fan of Anna Netrebko) was she booed at La Scala? 

[HeidelbergSoprano]

@Cenayon Exactly ^_^ I used not like her either but her voice has gained more power and beauty, for example, her Anna Bolena made me cry (in a good way ;)

SUPER

This is really good! This is a good role for her. She certainly dug into this music.

[Cenayon]

This might not be the conventional, or even the correct approach to Mozart. It doesn't have the natural smoothness, the elegant phrasing that we expect from a Mozart aria. But I believe she has somehow made it up to us with a luxurious interpretation full of dramatic intensity that just gives us a whole new insight into the character of Donna Anna. Opera is music AND drama. Drama without music is colourless, but music without drama is lifeless.

@Gruberovito Decisamente!! Anche qui in Italia vedo che stiamo proprio toccando il fondo. Tra l'altro stona continuamente.

@anacleto2011 That's true!!
