i've watched this over 100 times. every time i find something new and interesting. i've never seen a single other Ilija come close to her. her singing is absolutely SO EXCITING and REAL. Laura Claycomb is a gem
Why hasn't her name been put out there like Sutherland & Price have been? This woman is way too phenomenal to have been overlooked by the mainstream media.
Much more beautiful voice - and used more expressively - than Sutherland. The best voice to have recorded Illia - ever. And certainly the most fluid and convincing acting.
most under rated singer today... this girl is spendid... a voice for the ages. The agents need to get their act (s) together. No excuse why laura is not a household name.
Lots of vocal agility and she can act, too. Her timbre is perhaps best of all when she sings very softly. I am surprised I have not heard more about her.

Wow she is GREAT. Beautiful singing and excellent acting.
I remember seeing this in 2005 and meeting her and Tucci, her dog, following the performance! Amazing woman on and off stage.
One of the Best Ilia interpretation, wish can hear Laura's all Idomeneo!

World-class singer and yet so underrated
I already loved this aria. I love her even more.

Agree. She is fabulous!!
Bravissima! Wow
Exceptional as usual!
What a wonderful interpretation. Brava!
Beautiful voice and very artistic interpretation. Brava!
No, this was with Houston Grand Opera in 2005.
WoW!!
Thank you so much for this gem. Is there a possibility to see the rest of her Ilia somewhere?
sometimes she sounds like Edda Moser - the Mozart Queen!! BRAVA, she has an important, big and beautiful voice which she uses!!!
The real thing.
