- Jennifer Larmore sings the famous "Cruda sorte" after her ships sinks down...
I have a wonderful souvenir of this production. I had taken 10 fellow students to the Opera Garnier to attend it. It was their first time at the Opera for the most... and they laughed and appreciated it a lot ! There was such a happy atmosphere on stage...
Paris Opera Garnier, 1998 - Conductor : Bruno Campanella
I hope you will enjoy these excerpts as well!
I love the way she does this aria. I sing it myself and I get hints and inspiration from listening to her. Lamore is one of my favorite mezzos, and one of the best of recent years.
Jennifer has a truly beautiful voice which always me to a deep abyss and I tell u that with the biggest pleasure ever! I just love her...
This is great! Anything Jennifer Larmore does is top notch, like the great mezzo and person she is. I saw Jenny for the first time in person in a recital in Chapel Hill, NC, USA and met her afterwards. I am really looking forward to seeing her in "Hamlet" with Natalie Dessay, Simon Keelyside, etc. - March 27 at a theater near you.- Live at the Met. Look it up in your city. Brava Diva, Jenny! You are the greatest!
Brava Jennifer!!!!! one of the best versions of this aria. One of the greatests mezzos in history!
Superbly done!! And this Atlanta girl's still got it. Just saw her in AtlOpera's 'Centerentola' and she was superb, but sounded so much smaller-voiced than expected. The hall? She was very covered in tone but had all the coloratura flying! She's also lost much weight and looked gorgeous - nearly, at 50, the age of the character.
She is lovely and talented ! I agree w you ! I love Jennifer!
This is actually my favorite recording of this. Brava!
I agree. I'm all for keeping the art alive first and foremost. Also it is fabulous to see the individual interpretation, so that the opera performed is always different, always new.
she's so wonderful!!!!! BRAVA!!!
How delightful! Too bad she doesn't seem to sing much Rossini any more nowadays. I wish there were more commercialy available DVDs of Rossini operas with Larmore as she is such a delectable actress as well as an incomparable Rossini singer. I thank god for Larmore.
Such a voice, such charisma, wow, she is fantastic. I might go so far as to say that she does this aria better than Horne and Podles (although I adore both of these ladies and consider Podles one of my favourite singers). Brava Jennifer!
¡Qué flexibilidad vocal! ¡Excelente!
Mas o menos en la misma época de esta grabación la vi en vivo en el Teatro Colón de Buenos Aires cantar este rol en una puesta disparatada y maravillosa! Nunca escuché una Isabela tan perfecta y a la vez sensual y graciosa. Brava!
Because it sits a good third below the other Rossini mezzo roles. It's a pretty low sit until the cabaletta.
BRAVA!!!!!!!
Larmore sounds so tasty in this aria! YUM!
Would it be possible for you to post Lindoro's arias from this production? I would love to hear them sung by Ford. As for Larmore, one word: sexy!!!
Molto bene!
Stunning
@ezayi She has a beautiful voice and unespected hights for a mezzo!
I adore her. I find her voice so feminine and warm. I think it's shame that she doesn't sing as much in New York as she used to. There's a cetain mezzo who's been around since the late 80s who gets a lot of attention, but who always looks insane (and to be brutal and acidic - Cecilia Bartoli). Larmore did a fabulous recording of Capuletti ed i Montecchi, with Hei Kyung Hong.
Le manca il carattere psicologico ma la voce è perfetta veramente!!!!
@CrystalFlames
hahahaha! I was just thinking that! =P
Does anyone have her Pensa alla Patria??????????
She is a beast.
And she reminds me of Katinka from Zoolander.
wooooo
I'd say coloratura mezzo of spinto soprano if I had to guess.
you guys are on crack, this performance was amazing!
well she seems to have some serious problems of pronounciation.....other than that she's an amazing mezzo
è bbona ;P
The guys with the fake muscles are grotesque. These are supposed to be pirates??? Why can't modern stage directors stop perverting the composers' orginal creative vision? I guess there are different schools of thought on this, but I wish I could find more "traditional" stagings of opera these days. I think after Chereau's Ring of the 70s it was all downhill from there. I tried watching that travesty on broadcast TV when I was in my early teens and it turned me off to Wagner for many years.
la larmore avrebbe dovuto fare un corso cepu di dizione, prima di cantare... almeno...
Because the rule on opera posts seems to be brutal and acidic candor, I confess I find this "big" "chesty" "dark" voice unpleasant and conveying an underlying unwitting pomposity which has made opera and its divas the target of every Groucho impulse in all of us forever. Sensuous? Naw. I agree with OperaBR, who said the production is funny. The costume is hilarious.
She sounds like she's eating marbles, especially when she sings slowly in the lower register. Way too far back for my taste. When she finally has to put the voice more forward (to do the runs and sing higher)I like it much better. Costumes are out there! Wild stuff. Looks like a MacBeth I saw once on DVD with Thomas Hampson. MacBeth and Banquo looked like futuristic, leather-clad Matrix extras.
Not to mention Marilyn Horne!
jajajajajajajaja, que bizarro
Gosh u really like it?
i though it was a parody..
anyway check VIVICA GENAUX out, she sings Rossini remarkably
