No, I don't, not everyone is so educated in opera as you, unfortunately, I live in Brazil, where we hardly have any operas performed. I love opera and in the past few years I have tried to learn and listen as much as I can. Thank you for sharing here video, I will watch it later.
What happened is that there are no real teachers anymore. If it wasn't for my 84 year old Russian teacher from the serious Russian and Italian school, I still wouldn't know what I was doing in this country.
Cute but she was no 100%.60% top. She didn't gave all the phrasing and mezza di voce etc... that is really 100%. I don't mean volume, I mean shaping and you don't have to shape it all in rehearsal!
I understand where you're coming from, and it is difficult to categorize voices from that part history. I think that given her repertoire, soprano drammatic d'agilità is probably a more accurate description of her voice, but a very strong case could be made for mezzo soprano as well. I do agree that Ms. Didonato should explore Malibran's roles and that they would fit her voice very well.
Is it just me, or do Joyce and Debby not seem to like one another too verily? Their body language, at least, agrees with my idea: how very tense their embrace, how very deliberate their 'enthusiasm' in greeting, how pretentious that "brava"... I remember Miss DiDonato has talked about the inauthenticity in interpersonal handlings in the great operatic atmosphere.
It's just you. I didn't feel their connection was the least bit inauthentic. BTW, I don't think anyone has ever sung Maria Stuarda better than Joan Sutherland in the early 70s, but I also love Joyce's take on the role. Fascinating to hear a mezzo tackle a part I've always associated with sopranos.
@@Eiswirth1 I must admit, I was taken aback that she didn't mention Joan Sutherland at the same time as Caballe and Sills, particularly as she was singing "Nella pace" - an aria in which Joan Sutherland was truly extraordinary.
What happened to great opera voices? She has no chest, fluttery vibrato, no core/voce squillante, it is tiny, the fioratura is like two chipmunks barking at each other. Sad.
Thanks for the hints into your magic Joyce!!!!! And David McVicar too. Deborah Voigt certainly nails it as interviewer!!!
The wonderful Joyce Didonato. A strong healthy mezzo that is very agil. The success worldwide confirm it.
Magnificent! Look forward to seeing this in the movie theater.

Debby is a great host!
Good for you you know perfectly all these treatises, congratulations!!!
What an excellent interpretation! Brava DiDonato
Joyce is fantastic!
That aria is killer!!!! Omg Joyce is fabulous

Sensacional! Bella voce,Brava!
Joyce giving 100% at rehearsals ahha ❤️

Loooove it!
Awesome
Maria Malibran was a mezzo soprano as well.

I wonder how Mary Queen of Scotts came to be known with that title, instead of Mary Queen of Scotland, or Queen Mary of Scotland.
Ok, now I get it, lei sei italiano... this explains it all...
Is that Brenda Rae behind Joyce? I know they were in Agrippina together...
Technically flawless - she has mastered a supreme technical level of singing
I wonder if DiDonato is only singing here due tot he camera action. I would love to know if she marks for most of her rehearsals.
Joyce DiDonato looks 'brillian'. She's got more beautiful.
Ha, McVicar. I didn't think he's got so old.
Snap! In more ways than 1
Forget Didonato, who is the hot tall guy in 2:24? :)
There is no "hot tall guy" there, can you please reiterate what you mean?
@@pugh.joseph 3:58 . The bald guy
@@mavoisine3 That is David McVicar who is a Scottish Opera director, why?
Che livello...
Yes, Cecilia Bartoli has made it up and made no research, give me a break, if you hate her, OK, but don't say silly things, please, spare us.
🤣🤣🤣😱
Giovanna who? And you are... Orpheus?

Not as sad as your comment
she has a pitchy vibrato basically a tremolo in the high notes very annoying to the ears
