Stunning Miss Rebeka. Stunning. The pianissimo is glorious, but the whole thing is even more impressive. She is the only one who should be allowed to touch this role right now. This role is like the most beautiful chandelier, but if you cannot bring the energy it won't shine any light at all.
Donald Cant Indeed. Still waiting for our MONSE to be Resurrected. There's a lot of great voices in the world my friend. But only one LA SUPERBA 👑. Arnold Bourbon Amaral. MUSIC WITHOUT BOUNDARIES. 🌍🌏🌎👱👴🎹🎵🎶💙 Arnold Bourbon Amaral
Beautiful. I watch out for the career of Marina Rebeka with great interest. I heard very exciting and olympic singing from her and some other ones where i was afraid how long lasting her career would be. I hope it will be a long and successful one just for the fact that she's so immensely gifted with the talent for a true Belcanto- star and world famous career.
Stars like Marina can allow themselves to use their instrument to the fullest because of incredible vocal techniques they have aquired through tireless study. That is the cornerstone of their impressive careers :)
she is great in the most difficult repertoire written for the female voice... I really hope theaters dont start dropping on her heavy Puccini (like in her recent Butterflies) it will be the end of her voice
Finalmente una cantante che canta e non urla come la maggior parte delle cantanti oggi. Voce eccezionale se anche negli acuti può permettersi di non forzare. Brava
Wonderful voice and interpretation. Amazing fiato!!!. Beautiful picture of the scottish queen. Best regards dear virtual friend Lohengrin O. from Santiago,Chile. Dr. Fernando Rivas-Burattini.
E' forse la cantante più dotata e più interessante dell'ultima generazione. Ci aspettiamo molto da lei! non ci deludere Marina con scelte sbagliate , continua con il tuo repertorio attuale.
I love this great soprano so much. We need to see and hear her more often at the ROH and the MET. Cannot understand some of the dreadful casting at the MET and ROH sometimes.
hasn't the met always been that way? casting 1-2 people and the rest are horrible... I doubt people who run the big houses even remotely understand Opera
@@LohengrinO You are so right. I was looking at their 2020/2021 season and nothing is remotely interesting a part maybe the Aida . Still waiting for the ROH next season to be announced. Even the 2019/2020 at the ROH has not been very exciting so far.
the met is run by a moron that only got that job because of his father (former publisher of the NYT, who was friends with sills)... their casting department is a total joke.
I fear it isn’t the lack of great voices and talent, but the dying art of opera and a greater economic and cultural coup in more popular music! I’ve heard great raw talent used in different ways, not always my preference, but lyricists have taken the helm - I fear we may be a dying breed, but I don’t negate our newer generation and its music genre
Beautifully done. In her voice I hear echoes of Callas, Genger, and of course Caballé. Latvia has given the world great voices such as Garanča (mother and daughter), Opolais, Antoņenko (not that great), and (few remember her today).
Terry Cloth That's what my wife said my friend. Absolutely lovely. She said that between Madame Marina & Madame Saioa Hernandez they can jointly rule the world of OPERA. We love them both. 2 great lyric Sopranos. Arnold Bourbon Amaral
I saw her in Toulouse, Southwest of France at the Capitole theater in Norma , borring scenografia but Marina Rebeka was stupenda et karine Deshais was wonderfull as Adalgisa !!! Big beautiful voices for a long time I hope..
Maravillosa, para mi la mejor soprano actual en el mundo lírico, espero vaya madurando más sus repertorio de bel canto. Aparte de que es una muy buena actriz y posee una voz grande.
Is there a full video anywhere of her in this role? She has since taken on some heavier roles but I think she’s still just one of the best if not the best there is today.
Marina is undoubtedly the best Opera singer today.. Lisette tried but very early on the road the wobble got her, dont know if she managed to fix it... and as always the Met is snubbing the greatest alive singer of today like they did with Maria and with so many other great singers and instead they show us ... and ... I never thought she could deliver such a brilliant Aida: ruclips.net/video/LMCVDaTSRcU/видео.html
Bel canto without middle voice (90% of bel canto music is written for the middle voice): No thank you, Bel canto isnt a "hurry up to get to the cadenza" music, its Value lies always in the middle sections and the top notes are the cherry of the cake, absolutely necessary but without middle totally insignificant
I agree. It's a good performance. Very good if you compare with other Stuardas these days but if she wants to be a reference and make justice to the rol, she has to work the chest voice. The middle is good but the bottom is not enough strong.
Quite spectacular! Far more accomplished than anything the real Mary Stuart, one of history's greatest political nincompoops, ever achieved in her futile life. The opera, like so many others, takes such liberties with history, but has very fine music that undeservedly ennobles this royal yahoo.
Great moments of opera From the movie Mary Queen of Scots" Mary Stuart God struck down your mother & look she brings nuns priest and other filthy persons" Who is that brother" John Knox the leader of our religion" Yours but not mine brother"Yes I defend the church of Rome for I feel it is the true religion" Jamey " ride on " Lol John Knox "Do you defend the mass" Jamey "ride on"John Knox "Papist Whore" END OF SCENE. 1972 Staring Vanessa Redgrave as Mary. Glenda Jackson as Elizabeth. Both nominated for best actress. When Jamey said RIDE ON TWICE THE AUDIENCE LAUGHED hysterically. Just a bit of trivia & historically speaking Mary & Elizabeth never met. TY for listening Arnold Bourbon Amaral. P.S. the screenplay was also nominated for Academy Award. 🌹🌿🌏🌍🌎
57monks Mary was a Tudor, She was Doom from the beginning three failed marriages. Arnold Bourbon Amaral 😢👑 So much for Family Indeed. Do you prefer the ax or the sword? LOL
Arnold Amaral That film was so idiotic and was a testament to how ludicrous the Academy can be. I always loved Glenda and Vanessa, but they are human and were also capable of making bad decisions from time to time.
Great moments of opera My God! Just look at her behavior, her idiotic choices in marriage. Perhaps we can forgive her to some degree considering she was raised in part by Catherine de Medici, another nutcase.
Thomas Dawkins TY my friend. That was 7 years ago & She was not valued enough to return. Cotrubas had a similar experience. She did Traviata in Chicago in 75 to great reviews & due to other engagements in Europe La Scala CGOH,Paris,Vienna She made her MET debut in 77 to rave reviews as Gilda.DVD is available. My wife bought it for my daughter & I. My wife also purchased her studio recording of Traviata for us as well. We all fell in love with her 1979. She made her La Scala debut in 79 as well also available on DVD with Pavarotti 😢. Once again thank you my friend. Arnold Bourbon Amaral 🌹🌿🌏🌎🌍👱👴🇪🇸🇫🇷🇬🇧🇷🇺🇩🇪🇺🇸
@@arnoldamaral7406 I think Ileana Cotrubas made her MET debut as Mimí and then did the Rigoletto with Domingo and Milnes. She is my favorite Micaëla in Carmen.
Rebeka sang a few Norma's at the Met a few seasons ago, rotating with Radvanovsky and Meade in the title role. They all got radio broadcasts but the HD went to Radvanovsky.
She reminds me so much of Anderson. Not a really big voice, but not small either and has plenty of agility and use of dynamics etc. But I agree with others, not a signature voice by any means..
You "agree with others..".!!! Who are these "others"? As far as I see many others don't agree with you. I recognize her immediately and I am not the only one.
I think I’m the only one who finds her underwhelming. This to me is very competent singing but there’s no magic moments in it, no beauty in the timbre or phrasing and also no dramatic thrust. Maybe I’ll come round if I keep listening.
Lohengrin O I think you got it. My friend. TY FOR THE POST. I agree with the Great Moments in Opera that is what is lacking in her performances my friend. I also believe you're correct about making mistakes not taking risk etc, Arnold Bourbon Amaral 👱👴🌎🌍🎵🎼
Lohengrin O interesting theory. It’s certainly possible. I never hear a musical or dramatic “opinion” from her I guess. Would be interesting to hear her in easier rep to see if she lets loose. Has she done Tosca? Or other Verismo?
Great moments of opera Google her my friend. I don't think that she has performed Tosca. She seems to be making smart choices in her repertoire thus far. I hope she doesn't do a TEKANAWA.Sadly Her Tosca was a very poor choice. She received some very honest negative reviews. Arnold Bourbon Amaral 🌹🌿🌏🌎🌍👱👴🇫🇷🇬🇧🇷🇺🇩🇪🇪🇸

Absolument magnifique stupenda !!!
THE BIRTH of a great bel canto soprano in the path of her wonderfull predecessors Caballé Sutherland Gencer etc ... her Anna Bolena is stunnig !
Magnificent!
Absolutley divine
I love Marina!!!
Lohengrin O I have to say I’m a fan of hers now!!
J'ai cru entendre Caballé. Belle tenue du souffle. Mais Caballé est irremplaçable.
The best, the very best singing today in her fach
Excellent job but two more to try: Mariella Devia in 2008 (at age 60!!) and Beverly Sills in 1972 both are superb. As for now Marina Rebeka.

Yes! Beverly Sills the best!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻And Devia, Gruberova, Gencer, Sutherland, Caballé.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Bravo ‼️ Quizás la cantante actual que más me gusta
💯💯💯
Espérons que la superbe Marina n' que faire de ce genre de statistiques dont sont friands ceux qui confondent musique et compétition sportive.
Bravo‼️
Sublime
Bravo
Благодарю!
I agree. It's a good performance. Very good if you compare with other Stuardas these days but if she wants to be a reference and make justice to the rol, she has to work the chest voice. The middle is good but the bottom is not enough strong.
her bottom is HUGE it is not needed here in this piece
If you listen to other videos on here there are other roles and arias where she does seem to have plenty of chest voice to draw on...
ruclips.net/video/YInleRENrAc/видео.html
So you pretend she doesn't do justice to the role...Laughable. LOL
Must agree, good performance but most contemporary singers sound like empty vessels compared to the greats.
Today's Best
Well done.
Una bella esecuzione
Interessante
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻¡Maravillosa!
Pero sigo creyendo que la mejor versión es la de Beverly Sills dirigida por Aldo Ceccato.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻❤️👍🏻
