I heard Laura Claycomb's Zerbinetta at the Los Angeles Opera several years ago. Her voice carried well, though I'd be lying if I describe it as well. Her top, at least that evening, was less opulent than I'd expected. She seemed a little under the weather too. The highest notes--D, D-sharp, and E--seemed disconnected from the rest of her voice; this struck me as uncharacteristic of her technique.

umm...Laura Claycomb's voice is anything but small. It's actually surprisingly large. Even when she floats notes, her voice EASILY carries over large orchestras. I understand that when you listen to clips online, it sounds like a smaller voice. But I'm sorry, "small" is not a word that describes Ms. Claycomb's voice.

Contact the Houston Grand Opera. I saw this live several years ago. It's great.

Brian Asawa's acting is wonderful, I saw him in Seattle and his voice was perfect

The continuo sounds very interesting; the plucking instruments are a little too prominent, I think. Overall, a really excellent orchestral support as good as La Claycomb's singing (with the fabulous ornaments in da capo!). Where is this production from and who's the conductor? He really did an amazing job to make a modern orchestra Baroque-ish. I'm also glad to see a Tolomeo who looks (at least) like a dignified gentleman, without a ridiculous makeup. After all, he was a pharao.

Heard her Marie in Houston last year. Great technique but very small voice. She gets drowned out a bit here too. Otherwise, nice work.

Glimmerglass Opera's 2008 production of "Giulio Cesare"by glimmerglassopera3,125 views
The continuo is miked, which is STUPID.
It almost covers the singers. How can one claim musicologic truth and mike the contino which was suposed to be like a tight, thin carpet of sound, with big voices.Gorgeous singing by Mme Claycomb, as always.

i like the singing- but trash the performance! The best updated productions are the McVicar Glydebourne and the Peter Sellars MidWest war production with Susan Larson as Cleopatra (the best!)-some of her clips are on youtube!
