I love Fleming breaking out into character here, and she does the funniest thing I have ever seen on the opera stage-slapping the Cupid statue on the butt, with a loud whack. Still laughing about that because it was so unexpected but totally within the character she is creating!
Absolutely. The most hysterically funny thing that has ever happened on heaven or earth. Dangerously funny, one cannot see it without dying with laughter.
This is marvelous! And I especially enjoy how much she she throws herself into the role! She really feels the emotions she sings about. She loves to sing, and that love comes through beautifully.
Verdi wouldn’t have agreed ha that part is supposed to be the tender reminder to Violetta that she is in love. It has to be sang pretty not screamed like they are hate f*cking
I love that we can clearly see in Renee's interpretation that Violetta has indeed been partying that night, drinking away the pain (and the fear of true love). The champagne is affecting her thought process, her emotions, as well as her movement. It justifies the almost aggressively-written coloratura fireworks in this aria all the more.
She is using broader strokes in this interpretation. This Violetta seems more streetwise than in other productions. For me, more interesting and shows her acting ability as well as her wonderful voice. A bonus. Thank you.
Seems like Some People like the dress more than her singing 🤔 I am tone deaf so don’t know about the notes but she sounds fine & looks better than most Opera Sopranos & after all, that’s all that matters 😉
Out of all of the performances I've heard of this song, Fleming's has left me in awe every time I listen to it. I don't know what it is but, it's performed by her perfectly, in my opinion. She has the joyful, independence Violetta portrays but also the deep longing for love which shows in the song. Also, Calleja's Alfredo in this performance truly takes my breath away. His emotional singing just speaks to me, especially the ending with the lines "Mysterious, exalted. Both pleasure and pain." I honestly love this rendition of "Sempre libera" more than anything else. 10/10
This is one my favourite Operatic Sopranos. Renee' sings with authenticity and she carries her voice very well. She gets into the role she portrays and stays there. Strong, clean and pure soprano voice...!!!❤😘🥰
I love that gown. It’s gorgeous. Also I don’t get why people need to say that it’s a weaker performance, if you think it think it and go watch other versions you like better but don’t hate on Renée.
@@redisthecoolestcolour I actually found it very interesting as I watched Forever my Love (film about the first few years of the marriage between Empress Elisabeth and Franz Josef) a few days ago and the overture from La traviata was played in the La Scala theatre in Milan (where they went in the film). La traviata premiered a year before the wedding (1853 as opposed to 1854).
I hope that you become all that you wish to be. Expressing your HEART felt desires and hard work; will gain the respect of those people/organizations who may help you, along the path to your GOALS. “LIFE” is a team sport. Being a good teammate to others, rewards everyone in many ways ~~I wish you success and happiness.

Thank you Ms. Reneé Fleming for singing the "Vitrovi" part correctly. I've seen other singers sing it "Vitro- viiiiiii" when it is sung "Vitroooooooo viiiiii".
What an unparalleled Violetta Renee presented! I found myself drunk into La Traviata and couldn't stop listening for days. Renee breaks the limit of this character!
I just saw that in the story of Rene, (RUclips)one of the critics says that this is the aria that he thinks set her very high in the rankings of sopranos.
There's another version of La Traviata with Renee Fleming: the one with Villazon as Alfredo. She sings much better there. Don't know if it's age, or she just had a bad day when this recording was done. Probably the latter, as I've seen her in the Rosencavalier last week, and she was sublime.
I’ve always watched this channel for their ballet clips, and I just discovered there’s also opera 😂😍 I feel dumb for not thinking that “royal opera house” would have actual opera! Anyways , great work as always I’m just madly in love !
As someone who knows nothing about opera, I have to say the tenor's part sounds perfect to me. I mean PERFECT. As if this is exactly what it should sound like.
There are always people who criticize just to show that they're "knowledgeable" that only they think they are. Ha! It's kind of sad. Don't even bother to mind them!
Im late here, but I've noticed that a lot of opera videos have bad comments, and it just feels kind of toxic, which is why I normally avoid comment sections here
Either Renee Fleming is a great stage actress or this is a case of typecasting. Renee? Seriously, i think she did a great job with this, she made the character come to life! She is a joy to watch.
My favourite of this aria is by Dame Joan Sutherland, but this performance is phenomenal especially with the added acting. Absolutely amazing, all round performance.
Que la Fleming es muy agradable y muy buena, no se puede discutir; que nos deja sin el agudo final, y por tanto esperándolo tampoco se puede discutir!😭🤦♂️
y como esperas que de el mi bemol con semejante voz grande. El mi bemol lo dan más que nada las sopranos de coloratura. Fleming siendo lírica le queda bastante difícil. y siendo así no me espero un mi bémol
Anna Moffo's rendition of this aria is probably my favorite. I also enjoy Dame Joan Sutherland, Beverly Sills and one the best Is Maria Callas... The E flat is not written in original score but. I believe since most soprano attempt to show their vocal ability. They tend to end it with this... but a lot of Sopranos did or do not Montserrat Caballé, Renata Tebaldi and more recently Angela Gheorghiu....these are example are excellent execution of this aria.
Sempre libera degg'io Folleggiare di gioia in gioia Vo' che scorra il viver mio Pei sentieri del piacer Nasca il giorno o il giorno muoia Sempre lieta nei ritrovi, ah, ah A diletti sempre nuovi Dee volare il mio pensier Dee volar, dee volar, dee volare il mio pensier Dee volar, dee volar, ah Il pensier oh (Dell'universo, dell'universo intero) amore (Misterioso, misterioso altero) (Croce, croce e delizia, croce e delizia, delizia al cor) Follie!

I loved that about this too.
You are so right!
That tenor's choice in his part is amazing.

Yes, you are so right - her acting of that drunkenness is so vivid.
that was my thought exactly
She does look like she’s had a hard night..🥴
Indeed. ALL of your comments, from my thoughts to your words. Viva, Renée!
Excellent analysis.
Her singing is amazing, no surprise there BUT! Can we also take a second to admire that amazing dress she has on?
She is using broader strokes in this interpretation. This Violetta seems more streetwise than in other productions. For me, more interesting and shows her acting ability as well as her wonderful voice. A bonus. Thank you.
Yes, I agree
Streetwise😂😂 what an interesting choice of words for this 😂
I love how she plays her a little buzzed - that's so right for Violetta at this moment
She’s wearing a replica of Empress Elisabeth of Austria’s Worth gown.
Not a very exact replica, but interesting, thanks! :)
Yes she's
I noticed this too!!
Seems like Some People like the dress more than her singing 🤔 I am tone deaf so don’t know about the notes but she sounds fine & looks better than most Opera Sopranos & after all, that’s all that matters 😉
@@robertn800 It’s just that the gown is based on a famous painting of Empress Elisabeth of Austria.

Love how she has shown that Violetta has been partying prior to this. Yes. Now this is a singing actress right here. Loooooove her
This is one my favourite Operatic Sopranos. Renee' sings with authenticity and she carries her voice very well. She gets into the role she portrays and stays there. Strong, clean and pure soprano voice...!!!❤😘🥰
This gives me chills every time! She’s so musical and majestic
Not only sung beautifully but totally believable. Unusual.
I love that gown. It’s gorgeous. Also I don’t get why people need to say that it’s a weaker performance, if you think it think it and go watch other versions you like better but don’t hate on Renée.

Five years later how is it going? I hope you are doing well at least 😊
"Love is the pulse of the whole world. Mysterious, exalted..." As is Verdi's score.
she looks and sounds great in this!!!
My favorite and only Violeta, there is no comparison. A hug and thank you for this aria Renne!

Bravo! Terrific interpretation. How could people disliked this?
Because it’s crap and she is a rather poor singer
In case you don't know, this is the song that Min Seol A sang
Eun byol juga
I still prefer min seol a's version but I don't know who sang it for her 😒
Why would I want to know that? Stop spamming unrelated korean stars

That dress... to die for
Diva Fleming is afire with rich talent and passion.
Quelle voix sublime merci pour ce bel enchantement...
She is incredible! Also, LOVE THAT DRESS!
renee Fleming is one of the best sopranos who sung this aria .... !⚘⚘⚘
truly outstanding performance.
Wonderful, focused tone and consistent legato. Bravo all around!!!
min seo la's audition piece right??
Yup
She's amazing!
Just incredible. Love her in La Traviata! 😊😊
A soprano that acts with voice and movement. Brilliant.
I dont know but after watching penthouse made me want to listen to this and others

Galastel Its not a bad day for her. She herself said that this aria is not suitable for her voice (as in she struggles with the coloratura written) .
Beautiful singer and great voice. A DIVA!! Thank you.
I love that you added subtitle to this
This music and singing makes me chill
She’s amazing as always.
Great vocal work by Ms. Fleming!
I’ve always watched this channel for their ballet clips, and I just discovered there’s also opera 😂😍 I feel dumb for not thinking that “royal opera house” would have actual opera! Anyways , great work as always I’m just madly in love !
Simplemente hermoso.
Her voice equals her beauty.
Brings home to me how much I am missing the Royal Opera House.... cannot wait until the webcast (7pm UK - Friday 8th May)
beautiful
She’s my favourite Violetta!
Oh my god. Her dress ❤
amazing tenor
It's Joseph Calleja from Malta, love his voice
He’s Outstanding!
Bravo! I love Renee Fleming😍
Wow sublime coloraturas focused and healthy voice
I love her voice! I always love her passion and her technique is so insanely good.
AMAZING MIRACLE
Así es la Violeta...complicada y sensual a más no poder !!!Bravo !!!!!

Que coisa mais linda...choro do início ao fim.
Una voce d ‘Angelo 👏🏻
The gift of voice. Thank you God
There will never be another one like her
One of the great opera parts sung by one of the greatest sopranos of our age.
Either Renee Fleming is a great stage actress or this is a case of typecasting. Renee?
Seriously, i think she did a great job with this, she made the character come to life! She is a joy to watch.

Wonderful. Fleming was awesome!
very nice this opera
I love this oprea way to much but I don’t care can’t wait to see it in person
