Joyce is so sassy and Juan-Diego is so adorable, they're absolutely charming!

@raigekimaru That part always cracks me up. I think JDF just hit the right place, if you know what I mean ;)

2:42; that was a straight up lyric coloratura noise. Joyce is really like a soprano, except creamier and richer. such a lovely voice to relax to =)

actually, he fell asleep because it was beautiful singing. a beautiful female voice is one of the most soothing sounds in the world and would put many people asleep. if someone fell asleep while I was singing, I would take it as a compliment

This is the original version, which calls for a mezzo/contralto rosina. When Rosina is sung by a soprano (i.e., Gruberova) a number of arias are transposed up into high keys, uncluding this one, this is in D originally, as sing here, sopranos usually transpose it up a third in F. Florez is only singing lower because its in a lwoer key for Joyce, and the other version is only higher because its higher for gruberova

I should have edited the previous comment. I feel ashamed of my poor display of writing, but I hope everyone gets what I am trying to convey about this song and these singers. I have the feeling that the grooves in my brain are getting wired anew.
How could Bartolo fall asleep with this singing?

I saw this video for the first time, and it's wonderful. She has a very beauty voice and is so natural charming. The acting with Florez is so amazing, especially the comic of Florez is so great...
