I love Rachvelishvili as Amneris!
I love Netrebko!! She totally dissed the question about how difficult the role is. Snap, snap!!!
I saw this production when it was brand new with Millo and Domingo. What a feast for the senses! And with these artists today, a feast for the soul.
ｌｏｖｅｌｙ❗
I love Netrebko singing.
Glorious costumes and makeup!!
Two gorgeous women with amazing voices!!! The production was wonderful !! Anita Rachvelishvili was incredible, I love everything on her!😍 Bravo👏👏👏
Opera life is so demanding of one's EVERYTHING, only the few who can withstand that and still deliver make it to the top. It's a testament to one's inner "chutzpah".
Still don't get why Netrebko had to sing the low roles these days... miss her high voice
She said her voice has changed, but he can easyly return to her silver lyric colour, but ... for what? She has not interest with her old lightweight roles anymore. For lucia she is too old, like for Traviata as well, Manon Lescau is strongly destrоy any soprano voice, Norma seemed not very interesting for her,she refused to sing it. She just goes forward
@@elsaschlegel174 I agree with you, but in the case of Norma she just sed that her voice evolved in a difrent direction and insted of norma she went for Tosca at that time.
El 1º de octubre 2018 , hace apenas màs de un mes, vi la òpera AÌDA en el MET de NY, con estas dos grandes cantantes: ambas lograron una noche màgica, una funciòn que no olvido. Tuve la oportunidad de hablar con ambas y tomarme fotos con cada una de esas excelentes cantantes; a ambas mis felicitaciones y mi admiraciòn.
Anita I love you!
Beautiful interview.
Una magnífica Producción, una Gran Aida y una Sacerdotisa, de lujo. Duo. Increíble!!!
...that passion inside, I can't run from myself, there's nowhere to hide...
I love it!😆
What I don't get, is why some people criticize the voice/singing? I like it. Maybe someone that has more knowledge about operatic vocal techniques, can be more pedantic about their technique? But they're popular because of the demand. I'd suggest that the people that feel strong about this, promote other great performers, I want to know about them as well!
Well as already stated in the comments the 1951 performance of Aida with Callas and Dominguez as Aida and Amneris respectfully is the best recorded Aida. But Milanov does a great Aida, so does Tebaldi and simionato, barbieri, and stignani are great Amneris’ too!
Anita! Perfect English
Anita I love you
Anita
Thanks
RIP Caballé............
Back in action everybody plizzzzzz, only music is our salvation fans
Netrebko...❤❤❤❤❤ you got my heart
Netrebko has a great personality! She's so beautiful but also so simple and fun. On stage, she's so powerful and magnificent! I just adore her.
Both woman gorgeous, Anna we love you!!!!
Bellissimo costume x questa Aida bravissima Anna Netrabko Diventa una voce che si chiama Montserrat Caballe
🌹
Divas as stately as decoration;)
Oh my god! Is the interviewer Isabella Leonard?
Yep
Anna amazing!!!
IS this recording available on DVD ???
don't be angry my love....it's the life!!!
Аида - это уже почти меццо- сопрано! Кто Радомес?
Аида это сопрано-пресопрано, а ни какое не меццо)) И РадАмес.
An interviewer for the met asking why is Aida difficult?
Is this for the Met or MTV or some daily show interview. Like im really confused. Is it to emphazise they sing well she didnt even notice? Is that the audience of the Met? Very well then
Joao Aurelio well, Isabel Leonard is a professional singer...so I’m sure she is qualified knowledge-wise, however, the question is somewhat interesting as you can answer it in a very technical manner that no normal person would understand, or you can answer it simply by pointing out the basics. Very open ended, I thought it was good.
Anita sta diventando un monumento!
Great costumes tho
Someone should tell the interviewer that the opera is titled Aida not Amneris ...
Anita was clearly much more open to discussing what Isabelle was asking about. I feel like Anna got somewhat offended early on about the question of difficulty, because she knows full well that she has legions of critics who don't think she should be singing any of the stuff she's singing, and she probably doesn't really know what to say in regards to any of that without risking betraying herself and her vision.
I'm sure Anna wakes up every single day to fight as hard as she can as much as she can with everything in her to study her voice and study her body to make as many improvements and discoveries in these repertoire as she is capable of and goes to bed every single night never completely satisfied. Her career is a complete force of nature, and yet she herself is only human. I can't imagine how big of a burden that is for her to bear.
This is not a daily experience Isabelle as a lyric mezzo singing incredibly lyrical music can really empathize with, nor is it anything Anna could ever put into words. I think for her it was extremely invasive to be asked that almost immediately, and she quickly shut down. I think Anita really sensed that and took over. And I really love that sisterly support!
Well it almost wasn’t . . .
Anita's take is amazing in the house. During the Act 2 confrontation, her Amneris is clearly moved when Aida begs for pity. And who couldn't be moved by Netrebko's Aida? Both artists offer real complexities to their roles.
Ana , I think what Met Opera did to you was scandalous, I stand with you. OH how horrendous is their behavior. Love all you do
Anita is great mezzo 😘😘😘
No, she is the best Verdi mezzo on the planet.
@@xxsaruman82xx87 no she is not. She is a great Carmen. But she is not a great Verdi mezzo. Her high notes are quite difficult and the tone is so piecing and disconnected from her middle range which is so velvet and dark.
BELLISSIMI TIMBRI UNA RARITA
Callas, Mexico's Eflat 1951 the best Aida for all eternity.
Callas the best Aida for ever.
The E flat is no recommendation. Even Callas herself thought it was tacky.
@@Feisenbach
I know, that note is something not written on the partitures.
But I don't think it's tacky, maybe with the other sopranos they've tried and it seems like their necks are being strangled.
But that doesn't happen with Callas.
The E flat is perfect to the "tension" that there was.
Both the choir and the other singers are so perfectly adjusted (I don't know how to explain it). And to finish Callas gives the E flat which makes the whole Aria so exciting. (It is something similar to what happens in the first medea of Callas in 53, in the part of E che? Io son medea ... Oh fosca sonni implacabile dea .... Atre furie volar a me.
The choir adapts perfectly to the tension that Callas emits with his fury.)
And despite the fact that Maria did it as a tribute to the first soprano to give that note, the Mexican Angela peralta, was a beautiful, amazing and perfect Tribute.
. Currently, Saioa Hernández gave a fairly decent flat
The guy behind Anita is pretty hot.
Love Anna Netrebko, Miss her
I enjoyed the performances of both women, especially Rachvelishvili. Netrebko = petulant diva. As noted in another comment, Anita's English is quite good, and could that be why Netrebko seems aloof and even irritated by Ms. Leonard's question about difficulty of the opera? After that 'dismissal' by Netrebko, Ms. Leonard seemed to focus her questions more towards Anita - I don't blame her. Brava Anita Rachvelishvili !
AND WHEN Does she have Time to LEARN GERMAN???🇦🇹🇦🇹🇦🇹🇦🇹🇦🇹🇦🇹🇦🇹🇦🇹🇦🇹🇦🇹
FRAU NETREBKO
Нетребко всё-таки сельпо
Sometimes Anna Netrebko looks Isabel Leonard like she wants to struggle her 01:17 οr 06: 17 LOL 🤣🤣🤣🤣
These poor ladies are having to do interviews before going out to sing some of the most demanding music in the repertoire.
Netrebko looks bored and as if she'd rather be elsewhere. Can't blame her. I think these interviews should end. Why subject singers to give more of themselves who are already undergoing their grueling appearances onstage and so forth? Must mention that Isabel Leonard is so gorgeous. Reminds me of a Manhattan Social X-Ray, in a good way. Park Ave hostess and all that. 🌹
It's called 'Public relations' I guess
....Well You have to Consider this is for Met Opera HD.....presented to the 'Common Man' (if you will) Who may not be familiar with the Artists their roles etc..... Trying to Humanize them on a level the 'Pedestrian' Opera goer may not be aware of....Not a bad thing ..
MrDrascus Yes, she'd rather be on her Instagram 🙂
@MrDrascus on point 😂 she hates interviews hahaha, but I appreciate every single one. I don't mind that she seems bored, I think after more than twenty years of a career it's very understandable. I love her :)
dean rantz that’s true, but the intermission is the moment the singers need to recover themselves, especially in difficult Operas like this one. They could show a prerecorded interview.
Diosa
Anna indeed looks bored, poor her
Plummy may,s
Bad singing. What happened to opera? Is this the best we have?
Still, Netrebko’s bad. And so is the other one.
@Bravo Lucaunfortunately , there are people , who don't want to hear new voices , or see new faces. Everybody and everything that don' t resemble the " old ones" are immediately stamped as "bad" That's their tragedy :)
Both Aida and Amneris are MONSTER roles!!! Too heavy for Netrebko and too difficult for Anna technically she does not have the stamina for Amneris, too many forte low notes and fortissimo high notes! Way too many!
Horrible production and even horrible singing. Compare this with the 1950 Maria Callas and Oralia Domnguez recording and hear what TRUE singing should sound like in this taxing repertoire for the Mezzo-Soprano and Prima Donna.
If you heard Callas in person, you might be qualified to make such a silly statement.
@@paragod333 Sorry I wasn't born then. I can't travel back in time, and neither can you.
@@paragod333 So true! You gotta laugh at these Callas Queen types who never heard her other than in recordings. And if you dare say anything bad about Callas (for example, that she had the ugliest voice of any singer with a major career), their inner-Trump comes out, and it’s attack time. When I need a good laugh, I read their comments.
@@wotan10950 You obviously haven't heard Gruberova's voice, then...
When you are an ignorant interviewer making a fool of yourself and you don't even know it 😑
violetavalery Isabel is a great singer herself, but I think she probably lacks experience in hosting and embarrassed herself that day. She seemed a bit off and nervous.
Too oversized
Finally Anna learned some English...
Netrebko is plain bad and Rashvelishvili is mediocre...
Congratz Metropolitan !!!
And your credential are... Rash statements like that supported by nothing mean nothing
@@paragod333
Wobble, woofy voices, coreless...
Not exciting performance. Both ladies should attend fitness club to get more girlish shape. The worse thing in this spectacle was Radames performed by unknown Aleksandr Antoņenko. He was awful. Completely lack of ability to keep a tone. When he reached B it sounded like a C and opposite. MET should hire more Italian singers. After all Aida and Verdi, Puccini or Leoncavallo were Italians. Recently MET clearly forgot that.

Anna and Anita would be best in the choir
