  • AWESOME

  • Certified Intergalactic! Great voice! Amanda Roocroft is the name.

  • 3:16 oh ...hurt

  • @l1berty53000

    I agree with you: the interventions from Dorabella, and especially her facial expressions. Very beautifully sung, though... and the slap sounded olike a real one. Ouch!

  • ....Roocroft's acting is fabulous though. Gotta love the slap.

  • Definitely the best Fiordiligi, but I feel it's very nearly ruined by the decision to intersperse the thing with interruptions from Dorabella. Really embarrassing. If you just watch the other sister it's like a private joke. Or possibly it's meant to look like sisterly bickering -- making a mockery of the scene and putting a bit of a sinister spin on the whole play. (I.e. the message goes from 'women are frail' to 'women make dicers' oaths and know it all along'.)

  • this is my favourite "come scoglio" performance!

  • This is some fine singing. The tempo is right, her voice is right, I absolutely and thoroughly enjoyed her characterization. Wonderful! Thanks for posting.

  • is it me or is this in a lower key?

  • I met her last week :)

    Her nephew is in my jazz orchestra :)
