  • there are too many notes. :)

  • Superb singing of a fiendishly difficult aria. A beautifully dignified and convincing portrayal of Costanze. One of my favorite ladies too.

  • @babajaga39 He's referring to the first performance of the opera, when the Austrian Emperor remarked that there were too many notes.

  • Certified Intergalactic! I've heard sopranos singing this aria, but no one beats Valerie Masterson. The best!

  • @phenom1sama gagyi. hallgass gruberovát

  • le type avec la cage est vraiment pénible, ne fait que de distraire pour rien.

  • I've watched Ruth Ann Swenson and Malin Hartelius do this same piece, but sadly neither of them can touch Valerie Masterson.....Masterson's performance was truly MASTERFUL!

  • @ufukulusoy i loved it tooo... which notes do you mean exactly?

  • I think he swallowed a whistle can not remove.

  • I think he swallowed a whistle you can not remove.

  • This is the wonderful production,where Blonde had a blonde curly wig and granny glasses.

    Osmin approached her and tried to seduce her.She told him "I am an Englishwoman" and to prove it she urolled her knitting.

    She had been knitting a Union Jack!

  • What a gorgeous tone... the resonance!!! That's what I was looking for tonight.. was searching for a stirring performance of this monster aria. Wow!!! Pretty amazing. I've never heard of her. Thanks for posting.
