I was there! I loved it so much. I was sick and went anyway. Throwing Up in the toilettes of Teatro Liceu...but I had bought the ticket a year in advance and travelled all the way from Uruguay just to see her. Unforgettable!
This woman SINGS HER HEART OUT for us -- an absolutely massive instrument, in very artful hands... grateful.
Sondra Radvanovsky is THE PRIMA DIVA of our time. As was said of the late Jussi Boerling, she, too, sings with a tear in her voice, and her pianissimo is incomparable!
Yes, Jussi is the model of perfection for which others attempt to reach.
Sicuramente la migliore interprete del momento. Bella donna, espressiva, voce solida. Complimenti di vero cuore.
Wow what a lovely soprano. Perfect technique. Perfect phrasing. Perfect breath control. Spine chilling beautiful voice. Her geniality in using her chest voice. The big soprano voice that we so seldom hear today. Brava. Brava Brava Sondra you have a very big new fan. Love ❤ you.
She is a force of nature. Beautiful with a fierce voice!!Love her
I'm watching this from Texas, USA while in isolation due to the rapid spreading of covid-19. During these hard times, many have tried to devalue the importance of the arts. This encore performance brought me to tears. Thank you, Sondra Radvanovsky, for displaying your craft with such passion, and proving the arts are absolutely necessary during times of light and darkness alike!
Saw her sing this at Covent Garden two years ago. Tore my heart out.
Good heavens I have watched this today over and over. What geniality, what musicality? Perfection personified. May her star shine very bright on the international opera stages for many years.
It's a real shame that there is so little recorded material available for fans to purchase who can't get to see her live. I could listen to her all day long.
It's true Sondra has not recorded many commercial studio recordings; however there are a whole lot of live recordings, both video and audio. Many of them are here on YT. You can also purchase DVDs of her live performances of Trovatore, Ballo, Norma, etc. But I agree, I can listen to Sondra all day, too. Phenomenal singer.

I dobt understand who can dislike this! I myself am a firm disciple of the singer of the golden age. However here she delivers a rendition that holds strong even when compared with the renditions of the greats like callas, tebaldi, and caballe. Something which almost no 21st singer has ever managed to achieve even in just one aria.
Sondra is truly an exceptional artist. I am so proud that she has chosen to be a resident and now citizen of Canada, as we now are fortunate enough to hear her in Toronto both at the COC and in recital.
Bravissima ed emozionante! ❤
I just came back from a performance of Roberto Devereux at SF Opera, where Sondra sang Elisabetta. To say she was incredible is an understatement. I heard her sing Norma, again in San Francisco, 4 years ago, and I was absolutely blown away already then. I have heard many a great soprano in my 35 years of going to the opera throughout the world and even though I am sure this will perhaps offend, or at the very least annoy many afficionados if I say that Radvanovsky is in contention for GOAT, my statement stands.
The arguments I give in support of this statement are: 1) her incredible technique, 2) the quality of her instrument (rich deep chest voice, incredible pianissimo fil di voce high notes, amazing dynamic range), 3) her coloratura singing (not one note is missing), 4) the spinto or dramatic booming of her voice (never forced and always lyrically connected to phrasing), 5) her presence and acting, 6) her fearlessness, her striving, and the complete giving over of herself to the music and the role.
You can imagine my surprise coming home from the opera, where Sondra of course got a 10 minute standing ovation at final curtain, and finding out through the internet that she has actually been singing encores of arias in other major houses - it's absolutely unheard of!!!
I am in awe of what I heard and saw tonight. The vocal perfection and sound she produced was too much to bear and had many of us getting chills up and down our spines as her beautiful voice soared and sank through all these magnificent Donizetti coloratura passages. I was reduced to tears after 3 minutes into her first aria and after that I just let my heart go and simply experienced the most unimaginable sounds and feelings. She is such a great actress too - so rare in opera singers.
You may think this tribute too much, but I am rarely effusive or exuberant about opera singers, except, of course, if they are above and beyond - which tonight Sondra was - though the rest of the cast was quite good, she literally lifted the level of the production all by herself.
I am so happy to have heard her again and will now be tracking her career and her success in the years to come.
She is sensational!!!!
totally agree!
and i was there at SF opera for the Roberto Devereux too, she was perfect that night in every way, perfect technique, perfect presentation, amazing pianissimo on high notes
Just back from NY , where i saw her Tosca. IMHO one of the greatest Toscas of all time, there with Tebaldi, better then Callas, simply spectacular. I saw her in Paris in Trovatore and Ballo, ..immaculate. Her Norma in NY, was possibly not Callas level...but it was still wonderful . I don't know if she is the GOAT,..i dont actually think there is a GOAT (..maybe Shirley Verrett, but that is very very personal), but she is the greatest now and sadly by quite a margin, and she is definitely, no question nor doubt, the only soprano today that is at the same level of the greatest of the golden past. Looking forward to her Aida in NY in January. On a side note...am I the only one that would dream, want and pay to see her singing with Elina Garanca...say Don Carlo(/s), or Aida, frankly ...anything: it is a shame we have (only) two historical level lady singers..and they never seem to sing together...
@@gm2709 I also heard her in Ballo and Trovatore in Paris. The first performance was perfect : messa di voce, pianissimi... Everything was there. Il Trovatore was also wonderful : she did a bis of Miserere. I can't wait to see her again.
Wish I could have heard it, i'm too critical sometimes.
Que voz más espectacular! Sin esfuerzo, madura, suave, un terciopelo, un Cognac...
Saw her last night at the ROH Covent Garden - simply magnificent - indeed breath taking!!!
Brava.! What a generous diva assoluta ! What a fantastic audience as well! She sounds better than ever to mine tired old ears.
She is always sensational! BRAVA!
I listen to this over and over and never tire of her artistry.
Me, too!
For me she and Yoncheva are the real stars of this generation of opera singers. Netrebko has no technique and her voice becomes damage with the time. Radvanovsky has the volume but also the technique. Brava!
She learned to 'act' with her voice from Callas
The best prima Donna of the 21st century. BRAVA!!
Sra.Radvanovsky.....gracias, gracias, gracias 🌹🌹🌹!!!!
Tuve la fortuna de escucharla en un recital en Bellas Artes méxico hace algunos años y fue una experiencia maravillosa. Su presencia en el escenario es imponente u ella se crece y se entrega por completo.una voz muy potente y agradable.
insane!!! so good!!!!! No words can describe how awesome Sondra is~! I wish I were there,,,,,
brava e profondamente presa dalla parte che la emoziona molto!
angela rigoli
e di più con una vocalità 100% italiana ....
ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah !
Splendida e coinvolgente! !!!!!favolosa!
I’ve never been a great fan of Sondra but this was incredible
She nailed it
Llevo 2 semanas viendo esta actuación en bucle... BRAVA
That’s a beautiful voice that makes me cry.
Meravigliosa Sondra!!!!!!
I love when people ask and singers give encores
I too love it!
Molto sentita! Brava!
Divina. Grazie!
Just seen her at Covent Garden and she was superb - just right for the part. And Im a massive Callas fan...
Same and agreed
Same. Absolutely agree. She was sensational.
How people could put a thumb down on this is beyond me... Amazing, and generous.
Francois D there are tons of idiots who voted for Trump too that’s how. The world is full of morons.
because her efforts here are quite pathetic compared to truly great versions (e.g. Eva Marton)
viverito Let's not make this a platform for politics & please refrain from name calling. My friends.Thank you. I have been listening to this lady for the last couple of years & and artistically speaking she is a very good fine actress. I have heard her in various roles Aida, Tosca, Andrea Chenier,Norma Concert recitals etc.All on You Tube.My Opera collection is quite extensive and I have been listening to Opera since I was a young boy now that I'm 69 years old I continue to listen to new artists. I consider Opera the most beautiful greatest art form in the world as I'm sure some of you also feel that way as well my friends. It is the most demanding because of its intricate complex requirements to excel and this art form which is no easy task as you all well know. When it is sung very well and all the central/key players singers are singing very well you have a perfect storm shall we say. I have experienced this a couple of times once with Montserrat Caballe & Leontyne Price,Ileana Cotrubas.Jose Carreras.I felt very privileged at the Times when I experienced these moments it was somewhat surreal as I'm sure some of you have felt the same way before as well. There is no only one soprano that I would see today and travel within the United States to attend one of her Opera performance.That would be Saioa Hernandez.She has the entire package & and can sing all difficult roles as they should be sung.I have not heard this type of singing in 40 years.Sincerly Arnold Bourbon Amaral
Thank you for your meaningful words. I understand wanting to follow special voices. I try to see the tenor, Jonathan Burton when I can get to his venue. Luckily we had him recently as Calaf in the highly reimagined WNO “Turandot”.
Des que la vaig sentir a Tosca, sóc el seu rendit admirador...Ho té tot, veu, presència, domini de l'escena😍😍
Never ever seen such an intense and emotional female performer. So pure and honest, so strong and meaninful. Bravissima!
I agee!

Sie singt mit einer Intensität, die enorm und zu Erinnerungen an die Griechin führt....!
Brava, Sondra! This is a true operatic soprano.
So Amazing. Brava🤗❤
She is simply the best. That's all.
Arguably the best soprano of the last decades.
So generous in her artistry consummate artistry so gifted but has worked her ass off to sing like this.
Exquisite.Thank you for posting♫♪ ॐ¸¸.•*¨*•♫♪
La piu grande !!!
I did not like her voice until I heard her live, was blow away! Recordings don’t do her justice to many head, over tones and resonance that just doesn’t pick up in recordings
I feel the same way. I've seen her in the house in such diverse roles as Amelia in Ballo in Maschera and Norma, and the Lyric Opera of Chicago building is a barn. She sounds splendid and fills the hall quite easily.
I felt the exact same way! I saw her first Bolena in DC and the she sounded fantastic! Recordings don’t pick up all the special qualities of her voice!
I also agree here. Like many very large voiced sopranos no recording that I have ever heard does justice to her voice as it sounds in the theatre. Nilsson said the same about recordings of her voice and having heard her many times in live performances, I think that it is hard to capture true dramatic sopranos in recordings. Even Sutherland, who recorded very well due to the evenness and rounded tonal quality of her voice, sounded much larger in the theater than on any recording. I even heard Callas in her last tour when her voice was not as full and only with a piano but she was still filling the house with her sound, diminished as it was. These large dramatic voices must be heard live for their full impact.
Completely. Though i do enjoy her recordings, her voice comes across as a bit harsh and grainy, though the expressiveness is captured. In house there is a whole other layer of shimmering overtones that make for the most beautiful voice i have ever heard in my life. Sinuous and smooth and sooo dynamic. And absolutely huge! Throughout her whole range! Her high notes in particular dont sound impressive in recordings but she let loose either a D or Eb when i heard her in recital and I was absolutely pinned to the back of my seat by this enormous wall of sound.
Magnifique Sondra
She is so GREAT!
Superb !
Magnifique.
Wspaniale. Dziękuje Pani :*
Goose bumps, her coloratura is so so beautiful
UTTERLY AMAZING!!!!!!!!
Es maravillosa.
I was at this performance, she was amazing and extremely touched, she cried, it was crasy.
I heard Callas but she is a fantastic dramatic soprano.
nicole reding-hourcade lucky you. I was on the 2nd performance on March 12 and though we tried very hard we couldnt get her to sing the bis.
I was on March 24th performance and we had the pleasure to hear a bis. It was really amazing
nicole reding-hourcade she is not. a dramatic soprano..
Me too, March 2018.
she has no voice to be called dramatic soprano
Beautiful, dramatic, touching. All the ingredients mixed together in such a stunning performer. I loved her as Medea in the recent Met Broadcast.
¡ BRAVO ! Miss Radvanovsky
pepe valadez it is Brava 🎼🌷🌷🌷🌷🎼

Awesome !!!
Absolutely AWESOME! I wish there was a better word to give.
Fabuleuse SONDRA
Linda interpretação! Maravilhoso!
REINA
Bravissima
Amazing.
WHY IS SHE SO PERFECT?
EXCELENTE SENSACIONAL INTERPRETACION BRAVA.-
Groote klasse.
Wow, what a great rendition ! She doesn't hold a candle, of course, to the greatest of them all, La Divina Maria Callas...but still an amazing rendition of this piece! Bravo!
In her prime Tebaldi owned this part.
But both are now dead. Time to move on.
L'aria è di grande difficoltà sia interpretativa che vocale difatti le grandi Maddalena sono di parecchio tempo fa ( Tebaldi, Stella fino alla Marton) , sentire la Radvanosky è davvero un piacere e, in assenza di Andrea chenier validi, conquista meritatamente la vetta.
E ci aggiunga in primis La CALLAS!
@@alessandrocarlino4508
Ovviamente la Callas è sempre un palmo sopra ma non credo che sia stata la parte più calzante per lei come ad esempio Medea, Tosca o Lucia di Lammermoor dove a tutt'oggi rimane ineguagliabile..
@@alessandrocarlino4508 la Callas non è mai stata una grande Maddalena...
Ella es magnifica.
Stupenda emozionante
Better than ever.
Al pari delle più grandi interpreti
Gli manca solo un po di voce di petto per essere paragonata alle altre grandi interpreti!
@@alessandrocarlino4508 ho notato anche io che ogni tanto tiene il suono di testa quando potrebbe tirare fuori le unghie di un registro che ha comunque pieno e ricco; come ha dimostrato in altri brani
Heel bizonder.
❤
Very Good.Not as Tebaldi but unusual Thess days.Good acting.
Fabulosa!!!
I miss the drama, the effect that aria must cause on the listener. I don´t like to compare, but other singers make me want to cry, here I listen to the technique more than to the emotional impact of the aria.
no technique here!
@@artemsmirnov7067 , no technique? We must be listening to 2 different people. Not only does she have a technique here, she has a phenomenal technique. If you want a good gauge on something like breath support and control, for example, look at how a singer sustains pianissimo (like Caballe, an extraordinary vocal technician). I can hardly find any singer today who can float pianissimo the way Sondra does. Eva Marton, whom you seem to be a big fan of, was horrible with breath control and sung everything forte/fortissimo. I sense some bias here ;-)
O Sondra ............!
Probably the only singer today who possesses a full 3 octave voice and isnt afraid to use it. Renee fleming does, or at least did, as well, though ive never been a huge fan of her singing.
Avec plaisir.
Divino indeed
❤️👌
Bravíssima Sondra!!!
Sencillamente, Bestial!
Sin palabras... Ninguna le hace justicia!!!
El público, cuando algo es bueno, no tiene piedad. Repetir dos veces ese aria es un sobresfuerzo vocal.
Prachtig!!!!!
Wonderful! How did the other singers feel about this encore?
There is only one thing I dislike about this, and it is the utter lack of chest voice. I am reminded of how Tebaldi and Callas would absolutely gutter that last "l'amor", and would drive the audience crazy!
But make no mistake, she is great!
MnikM umm ... she’s got FULL chest placement in the middle of the aria. There’s no “utter lack” here. She chose to place the last notes differently.
Yes, that is what I meant to say. She obviously possesses chest voice, it is the lack of its use in certain areas that bothers me.
Her chest voice is actually pretty amazing, and sometimes she goes bananas and crashes down in to it, which is awesome. I’ve seen her a lot at the Met, and there are many times where, as in this clip, she very deliberately stays away from the chest. It’s particularly puzzling here, as it robs the end of the aria of any power.
Yes, exactly! There are instances in Roberto Devereux where she lets that chest voice rip, but here, where she needs it most for dramatic effect, she withdrew it. Strange indeed.
Interesting comment, and I agree that she chose on this night to mix that note. But all singers have off nights or or even off moments during fine performances--singers are human after all and can have a little mucus or whatever--maybe one gets carried away earlier ( in this case on the preceding high note) and has to conserve. Two other thoughts. First, Tebaldi was a real spinto and lacked the facility Sondra has on top. The comparison to Callas is more apt. They are both huge voices singing some pretty diverse rep, but Sondra has been more successful preserving her voice, although most would probably say that Callas achieved a super-human standard even though it cost her in terms of longevity. Callas was also not protected from giving too much at too young an age. I have heard Sondra say that the Met staff were very tough with her about getting a more careful technique before they let her advance.
Una voz de soprano maravillosa gracias por tanta felicidad
Amigos del gran Liceu ópera de Bacelona podrían decirme cuando canta al tenor peruano Ivan Ayon-Rivas ganador del concurso 56 Viñas gracias
Nos cantó en las Palmas 3 Elisir . Biso la furtiva lágrima en las 3 funciones. Un tenor desconocido para el público que fascinó realmente. Extraordinario.
I don’t believe she’s a drammatico soprano, lirico spinto si, mi piace moltissimo
... ‘ fa de la terra un ciel ‘ ...
Una muy buena rendición al aria, Sondra es probablemente mi soprano favorita del día de hoy, pero aún así hecho de menos la voz de pecho, esta aria tiene desafíos vocales gigantescos y una orquesta muy gruesa que sin una voz de pecho potente y resonante no se podrían superar, en fin, es imposible no volver a la Callas cuando de Andrea Chénier se trata jajaja
Totalmente de acuerdo. Una muy , muy buena versión, pero en Callas es otra cosa…
