superbe réelle grande interprétation de cet air souvent coupé de moitié ! le Da Capo est juste parfait d'intonation de technique et d'implication dramatique dans les couleurs de voix ! avec une cadence sur en Ut filé décrescendo juste un rêve ! Amazing great rendition !

I have been spoiled. Has not anyone heard of Montserrat Caballe? Once again, Caballe sets the aria to an untouched level. This lovely soprano wobbles in her vibrato that is unattractive. And without color there is no dimension as is likened to another soprano. Opera houses 'cost saving' contemporization for sets and costumes are boring to distill the flavor of the given original libretti intent. Frankly, this set looks like a 1960s network broadcast for The Judy Garland Show.

Magnífica Montserrat Caballé

Ssso good!! Olga Makarina live one & this one is two of my fav ver.!!!! This aria is... crazy by the one.. so hard lol hahahaha😅😂haha

C'est ravissant ! Elle chante avec beaucoup d'élégance et de finesse cet air redoutable de Marguerite de Valois .On ne peut pas la comparer à Sutherland qui a une voix beaucoup plus corsée .Ni même à Sills qui fait preuve d'un abattage étourdissant dans cet air .Donc elle a son style à elle ,elle chante très bien et c'est assez équilibré au niveau de l'ornementation : ni trop ,ni trop peu ! C'est très bien comme cela .

What is this sorcery?!

Virtuosidad, fuerza, belleza en estado puro, nos eleva y encandila. Qué gran descubrimiento el de esta diva divina.

Maravillosa voz....que bonita interpretación... Elegante. Bravo

Beautiful ❤️

WHAT AN ABSOLUTE SINGING, PERFECT A BEYONE!!! BRAAAVA LISETTE BRAAAVA!!

I am so unimpressed with this instrument. It is very strident at the top sometimes and the registers are not uniform. There is also a labored quality to the fiotura. I'm not sure why people are so into it.

I think the answer to your question is simple and you and I know it

You’re unimpressed with Lisette’s instrument because your understanding of good singing is warped. I don’t know you, so I can’t help you fix that. Besides, you’re entitled to have poor taste. And you don’t have to watch Lisette’s videos. If you don’t like her, don’t watch her. But forsake the enterprise of trying to turn knowledgeable fans of great singing against her. You will fail. Because we know great art. Toodles!

Spero che i vedovi della Devia si siano accorti che c'e' n'e' una meglio. Bel colore di voce, tecnica, estensione, interprete, simpatia, sorridente, impeccabile, trilli a tutte le altezze, perfetta dizione, sopracuti belli e timbrati, charme da vendere. ATTRICE per davvero. Cara Lisette, il futuro e' tuo.

Like one would say in the hood, "She is sick wid it." OMG

sublime

Bravissima!

She sounds so much like Georghiu

Que pena de ver estas producciones surrealistas, se están cargando la opera con tantos experimentos escénicos. Oropesa genial.

Talk about a perfect master class at Carnegie Hall. She soars like a Dove, in the upper coloratura register with such ease and precision. She has mastered the bel canto style. Bravo!!!!!!!!

Gran herencia hispana inspira este arte excepcional. Gracias, Lisette, x el regalo de tu voz y tu presencia en escena. Gracias, Tomas, por subirlo.

I´m speachless!

Where was this production? What is the set supposed to represent? A garden, or a forest perhaps? She certainly is magnificent, and at such a seemingly young age!!

This is from Opera de Bastille 2018 production. The set is garden of the Château de Chenonceau in Loire valley. Marguerite de Valois awaits there her wedding to Henry Of Navarre future Henry IV of France. https://www.operadeparis.fr/en/season-18-19/opera/les-huguenots

El fenómeno Lisette! Hay que admitirlo, es estupenda.

That’s a lot of straining for very little sound.

@Vince C that's true.

To H P: You sound like one of the twerps in the “We have nothing better to do than hate on Lisette’s videos” club. Too bad you’re still miserable.

Idiot!

You haven't heard her live so you have no room to speak. Recordings can be very deceptive in terms of vocal size.

J etais hier soir à son concert à Rio de janeiro. Quelle grande voix, et pourtant si souple. Technique superbe . J ai eu l impression de revenir aux temps des grandes cantatrices enfin! Remarquable air des Puritains, lucia, la rondine.... En plus simple et sympathique!!! Bravo bravo

The breath is perfect!!!

Much better than Nadine Sierra

@5:55 First of all, we are not allowed to say WHATEVER we want. I have the right to say what I think about opera, but you don’t have the right to attack my personality “arrogantly”. What is allowed to you, it’s to criticize the contents of my comments. And I just don’t understand why you are so angry. Do you think hypocritically that any kind of negative opinions are inappropriate ? I just express my opinions about “singing” : I'm not criticizing the personality of Nadine and Lisette. It’s not arrogant nor sadistic at all.

@YK and who said you're giving "valued judgement"? Your arrogant self? You sound sadistic...

@YK although you do have right to say whatever you want, just like i have the right to voice my opinion of your bad character, it doesn't give you the right to completely underestimate someone's hard work with horrible negative words because you're NOT IN THEIR SHOES... IS CALLED KEEPING YOUR UNCALLED-FOR DESTRUCTIVE OPINIONS TO YOURSELF... In that case, just say i prefer this one over her because you do have the right to choose..., don't say one is more mediocre than the other because their must be something they're both doing, that's catching the world's attention... Like hard work! Seriously you and people like you in this fucked up western world, is what's destroying the beauty of humanity,you're part of the problem arrogant untalented piece of dudu...

@5:55 Why are you “unnecessarily” agressive ? Because you don’t like it when other people have an idea that you don’t agree with ? In the first place, I’m not a singer. I can’t sing. So what ? Even if I can’t sing, I can have my own opinion and have the right to express my thoughts. Excuse me, but you are such a weird person who can’t stay sane about critical comments. Value judgement is one of the ways to enjoy opera.

@YK exactly, you have no talent, nor worked the years and years necessary, with your voice and self-esteem, to be able to confront thousands of peoples at a time on stage... So simply, shut the fuck up! You're weak, frivolous, and unnecessarily judgemental, like the bitter trolls, that always have nothing to apport to society, but always have something to say to feel important.

Pure beauty! 🤩 Perfect, as always ❤

God be blessed!Finally a real talent!I cannot believe my ears,a singer of such dimensions!

Not since Sutherland has this wonderful aria been sung with such virtuosity

Po

The Callas/Sutherland of our time. A true musician, artist and technician. Just wonderful

You obviously do not know who and what Callas and Sutherland were. Though very good, Oropesa is nothing like those two giants. For one thing, she does not have even a small fraction of the voices Callas and Sutherland had - much less the historic and epic virtuosity and musicianship of the two. Callas was one of the great musicians of the 20th century on any instrument. Oropesa - very nice, just not remotely in the same category.

Shahrdad Ah ah, you did a pretty nice and funny comparison with different painting technics ! It's true indeed !

@Shahrdad I think you're right. It's a totally different voice and she can't really be compared with either Callas or Sutherland. I also don't think this comparison is needed, and it's also maybe a bit unfair to always make this comparison, because everyone has something different to offer, and Lisette Oropesa has enough to offer, she's a worthy artist and honestly I would gladly buy a ticket to hear her sing live. All I meant to say in my comment is that Callas and Sutherland are in a league of their own when it comes to the actual vocal instrument, the voice itself. That doesn't mean that other singers with modest voices are less good, not at all! The instrument is only part of the package.

@bablatoss It's a different kind of voice. Her way of singing, her musicianship, and her phrasing remind me a lot more of Callas than Sutherland. I often think of her as Callas's prettier daughter. Whereas Callas was like a rich oil painting, Lisette is like a gorgeous watercolor.

She's a great musician but her instrument is much more modest. Callas and Sutherland also had an outstanding voice.

dove canta questa bellissima giovane donna ? in un bagno turco ?! ... i tecnici del suono hanno esagerato con lo stereo ancora una volta ...

Nel deserto dei tartari. Ringraziamo questo regista raffinato. Ha molto talento, comunque... Anche se secondo me la tecnica è migliorabile.

Brava!

My 6 year old son has twice the voice without microphones. And his neck is totally relaxed when he sings.

Andrei U. I see you’re back at hating on Lisette’s videos again. Being a twerp is unbecoming. And your campaign the other day was unsuccessful. I understand that you believe you can feel tall only if you attempt to cut someone short. My suggestion? Go to therapy to work on your Napoleon complex.

@Frank Furter: I agree this is small, unimportant instrument, that lacks colours. And she is occasionally flat. Whoever states this is a big voice or beautiful is really clueless, The timbre isn't pretty at all.

Hahaha!

Well, obviously she'll never have any kind of a career.

So listen to your son and stop writing this stupid comments

What absolutely terrifying neck/muscle tension in her singing. A true sight to behold. I really hope young singers do not aspire to the overdeveloped muscle straining seen here. And must the vibrato CONSTANTLY change speed? Must each vowel constantly spread? Must the soft palate drop and the larynx rise for every single high note?

Thank God you’re not teaching voice in a conservatory, Alandro. Ms Oropesa has a beautiful voice but neck tension is neck tension and incorrect singing somewhere technically.

Just your opinion not ours thank God.

Though I am not the greatest fan of Meyerbeer, or for that matter the French Language and French Opera, I just *love* Ms. Oropesa's performance here! Such Silk, Subtlety. She is truly in the Bel Canto lineage, with intent or unawares. Can we all say Lily Pons???

omg yes, I didn't realize until you said it! Pure perfection!

Interesting comparison certainly her voice has more beauty than Callas or Sutherland.

Omg, her neck 😰

Yup. Sometimes she She Presses the voice too forward in the middle / upper middle and then the top lacks correct space and chiaroscuro for the top and she has to squeeze because her vocal cords are stuck in too narrow a position and not relaxed enough to stretch.

the neck muscles demonstration is science's textbook worthy.

And your screaming is better? You are delusional 😂

@Sávio Faschet Before it existed ;)

Lisette everytime i hear you singing you touch my heart!

I just keep coming back 👌🏾

Goosebumps!!!!!! So effortlessly done. Sheer perfection.

Her singing is so spectacular it makes me forget the horrible production and costumes that in no way( except in the mind of the designer) reflect Meyebeer's opera.

She just announced on Facebook she is the recipient of this years Beverly Sills Award!!!!

No surprise there. Sills would've loved her and her masterful techniques.

She is spectacular!

The staging looks like a deshabilles dress rehearsal but that VOICE. Omg. Total package and astounding!

Lovely!

I feel so inspired and refreshed. Beautiful production! Bravi!! Lisette, that cadenza. THAT CADENZA! I was completely floored and gasping for air. You are blessed with a gift that has been touched by the creator. Your hardwork is evident, and I so appreciate that. You are a true example of what it really takes to pursue this career. Thank you so much, for being you!

Es maravillosa su vos agudos nítidos este ete

There is a God, after all.

Les Huguenots by Meyerbeer 1836 ....

Wow!!

I can't belive that someone can sing like that. It is beyond my imagination. Brava!!!

Wow! It’s the first time I listen to this lady! She is incredible 😍😍😍😍

Delighted to find out answer to my question what the Met is doing for her ? is “ a lot “ She will be doing Traviata and Manon next Season as announced today. Brava Diva! Well deserved.

Lisette, vous parvenez à redonner vie à un opéra français bien oublié... je voudrais tant vous entendre dans Lazuli de l'Étoile, et aussi dans Minka du Roi malgré lui ! Vous y feriez merveille... et pourquoi pas, un jour, Mélisande ?

Beautiful. Such a lovely aria

So wonderful and so SECURE in her technique, breathing .... a great Bel Canto soprano and a cut above the rest who sing this repertoire.

I absolutely love this, one hundred and ten percent. (Can I do that? ;)) I have no other words.

She deserves the Richard Tucker award. She is the best of her generation and singing at all the world's greatest opera houses. She makes her debut at La Scala this summer. Also, she needs a recording contract asap.

And now she has announced that she has a major recording contract (a FIVE year contract). She is recording an album of Mozart concert arias, right now, as I type this!

R Arnold I’m SOOO wondering when that’s going to happen! She’s really at her prime and can sing any lyric coloratura role she desires

@Savannah Dillard Oh, I know! This week she also received the Beverly Sills Award from the Met. I hope a major recording contract is on the horizon.

Well, guess who just won the Richard Tucker award? :)

Insane singing, love you

7:45-8:05 is pure heaven. DIVINE!!!!!

What a voice! What a tecnique! Perfect! My inspiration!

Marvelous. Anything else would be icing on the cake. But this cake needs no icing. It can stand alone.

One word: miracle.

This is sensational singing! Lisette Oropesa is the world's premiere lyric coloratura. The MET needs to cast her and Lawrence Brownlee in LE COMTE ORY. It has ignored her for far too long.

My brain would explode if the Met did that. Oropesa and Brownlee are my current favorite bel cantists. I would buy a ticket in 0 seconds. 😆

Yeah that's true. Met gives her the same roles. Two years Traviata and without a broadcast. They will do Lucia and Lisette is not in the cast. Met has to recognize her talent and give her Amina, Elvira, Adèle, Lucia e.t.c.

She will be singing Violetta and Manon next season at the Met.

Twice next season (finally)!

FaustinaBordoni To be fair, I think it's just a matter of logistics. Both artists are booked years in advance. I would, however, love to see them in either Lucia or Comte Ory.

Cette superbe chanteuse a quelque chose de Callassien ... Elle fait partie des rarissimes chanteuses qu'on veut écouter sans même vouloir la voir...

OMG ! Dear Lisette , this is simply awesome !!!!! You´re starting to play with mythical roles.....BRAVA !! BRAVA !! BRAVA!! Gracias Lisette !! :-)

Ah! Mon Dieu, je l'avais déjà entendu chanter ceci comme les anges, et me voici à nouveau tombé à ses pieds, ébloui par l'élégance et perfection de cette interprétation... Je ferme les yeux et je crois entendre le gazouillement magique d'oiseaux au printemps...

Absolument splendide de bout en bout, de l'épanchement à la virtuosité de bravoure ! distinction du phrasé, justesse du ton, classe interprétative et scénique... Des trilles battus à l'envie, une vocalisation sans expédient et d'une merveilleuse souplesse aussi bien qu'n sens jamais gratuit des nuances, celles-ci toujours colorées, achèvent d'éblouir !!!

She's breathtaking. There is no one else like her today.

@Crazy organist BEVERLY SILLS the best.

She is a friend of mine dear !

I agree hers is the most beautiful soprano voice today.

@Crazy organist Well, but Sutherland is long dead, isn't she?

@wallymarcel1 joan Sutherland

Блестящее исполнение!
