Well I for one won't wait until she is dead to sing her praises. this woman simply blows me away she has the most incredible voice, I hope she never stops singing. The UKs number one Gheorghiu fan.
Magistralmente interpretada La Sempre Libera... no hablo del punto de vista de los expertos sino del de los expectadores y es justo lo que la gente que gusta del canto de la Gheorghiu espera. . . Bravisimo.
beautiful song, beautiful woman, beautiful voice, beautiful dress. everything about this video is absolutely exquisite. angela is a perfect violetta with the right amounts of youth, passion, and exuberance. i absolutely love everything she does. 5 stars.
Not only is she skinny (which should not be of any importance) and really beautiful but she is undoubtedly a fantastic soprano with substance. A real artist.
When you can sing like Gheorghiu, I think you earn the right to take a bow after your aria. If I was in the audience, I would love it if she came out of character and took a bow! Brava Gheorghiu!
Ya know, I can't say that I can appreciate many of Ms. Gheorghiu's artistic choices, however, I have to admit that, this time, her penchant for bombast is absolutely effective and thrilling.
I saw her at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York in 2006 and I really think she is one of the best Violetta at the present time. She's just beautiful, fragile, and tragic. I was in love with her performance. I had the feeling of seeing an historic Violetta and I still think so.
For me, this is the best Sempre libera on TH-cam, she even tops my darling Sumi Jo! Gheorghiu has the most exquisite voice and her singing here is simply divine. I personally believe that Callas is the best Violetta we have recorded but alas we have no video recording! Imagine if we did!
lol you're right! The audience did love it. I saw her perform La Rondine a few nights ago with her hubby @ the met. It was fun! she has a great voice indeed.
I think that this is a great Violetta. I like how she acts: very natural and you can almost feel her strugling. I think La Traviata is the greatest opera. Sad, sad sad. This has nothing to do with gay or not gay . Class or no class. American or not American. This is beautifulnes- and that is for mankind. Enjoy everyone!
Dio mio che voce potente ed espressiva...non la ricordavo così immensa, eppure sentirla subito dopo la Netrebko fa capire quale differenza ci sia tra le due... Grandissima Violetta a mio parere.
Virginia Zeani, Angela Gheorghiu's idol, can now be heard in her Covent Garden debut as Violetta. Totally unrehearsed it is a thrilling, dangerous and unmissable performance.
But she is beautiful! No one could be that lovely. And I do like her voice. In fact, she has a wonderful voice. Nohting at all unpleasant about her singing.
The tenor is actually Frank Lopardo. I was at the first night of this production in London. Sensational. She and Alagna met while singing La Boheme at Covent Garden.
wow, I actually didn't like Gheorghiu a great deal, until now. Her acting is really amazing here; the creamy thick quality of her voice is also incredible. Unlike a lot of singers that sing this, I actually think she makes this song sound happy, filled with maddening excitement.
hey all! Bet you didn't know she was Romanian! Yep they'r good. Do it better than anyone. At every thing. Romanians are good at absolutly everything they set their minds to. She was born in Adjud, Romania and graduated from Bucharest Music Academy in 1990. "Desteapta-te Romane!"
Estoy de acuerdo con alguno de los comentarios aqu expuestos, es verdad que Angela Gheorgiu no es lo suficientemente delicada y sútil para cantar algunos roles que lo requieren, o en alunad arias y no siempre utilizando toda la fuerza de la voz sin piedad, pero Angela Gheorghiu es una gran voz de timbre y color extraordinario.
I adore her since she was a school girl, lol ! I saw her when she took part into a contest during the coomunist regime, emotion70 ! She was fantastic !
Sempre libera degg´io folleggiare di gioia in gioia, vo´che scorra il viver mio pei sentieri del piacer. Nasca il giorno, o il giorno muoia, sempre lieta ne´ ritrovi, a diletti sempre nuovi dee volare il mio pensier shes a genius
Well I for one won't wait until she is dead to sing her praises. this woman simply blows me away she has the most incredible voice, I hope she never stops singing. The UKs number one Gheorghiu fan.

Magistralmente interpretada La Sempre Libera... no hablo del punto de vista de los expertos sino del de los expectadores y es justo lo que la gente que gusta del canto de la Gheorghiu espera. . . Bravisimo.

the true DIVA in ours times......VIVA Gheorghiu........the best TRAVIATA that ever had existed.....
oh boy, what an amazing, powerful voice! Had never heard of her until now.
Not only is she skinny (which should not be of any importance) and really beautiful but she is undoubtedly a fantastic soprano with substance. A real artist.
This performance is formitable, it is her gestures and expressions that compliment her voice and enhance her Violetta.
BRAVO, BRAVO gran actuación y que voz
Angela eres una joya!!
When you can sing like Gheorghiu, I think you earn the right to take a bow after your aria. If I was in the audience, I would love it if she came out of character and took a bow! Brava Gheorghiu!
Simply beautiful! Very expressive.
I love Angela! She is my favourite Violetta, Mimi and Magda.
:o)
I love how she gets so loud! It gives me chills.
The best performance of Sempre Libera!
amazza! adoro sentire kuesto pezzo davvero... bravissima
This is soooo amazing to watch and hear. She is singing her heart out and is in TOP TOP form. Bravissima!
Ya know, I can't say that I can appreciate many of Ms. Gheorghiu's artistic choices, however, I have to admit that, this time, her penchant for bombast is absolutely effective and thrilling.
beautiful voice and she looks divine!!!
I just adore this ladies voice!!!!!
Doamna Gheorghiu ne mindrim cu dumneavoastra!
This woman is just incredible!!
Grande, brava e anche molto bella!!!
I saw her at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York in 2006 and I really think she is one of the best Violetta at the present time. She's just beautiful, fragile, and tragic. I was in love with her performance. I had the feeling of seeing an historic Violetta and I still think so.

Semplicemente straordinaria. 5!!!

BRAVA........BRAVA....BRAVA...VIVA ANGELA.......THE BEST OPERA SINGER IN THE WORLD.......a very godd voice......no comment..by critics....
The best so far!!
For me, this is the best Sempre libera on TH-cam, she even tops my darling Sumi Jo! Gheorghiu has the most exquisite voice and her singing here is simply divine. I personally believe that Callas is the best Violetta we have recorded but alas we have no video recording! Imagine if we did!
Wow, she has a gorgeous voice.
very beautiful opera singer. maybe the most beautiful i've seen before.
Splendida, eccezionale.
*_*
I love this Opera!!
And I'm proud to live in Giuseppe Verdi's country!
Angela Gheorghiu is great!!
que voz esta mina por dioooooos!!!! GRANDE ANGELA!
To me she is the best Violetta. I can see in her Verdi. Without added high note and with all composer's comments this interpretation is authentic.
una voz realmente maravillosa, Dios la bendiga
Simply wonderful!
lol you're right! The audience did love it. I saw her perform La Rondine a few nights ago with her hubby @ the met. It was fun! she has a great voice indeed.

Dio mio che voce potente ed espressiva...non la ricordavo così immensa, eppure sentirla subito dopo la Netrebko fa capire quale differenza ci sia tra le due...
Grandissima Violetta a mio parere.

Thank you "umbrea" for posting this jewel among other things you have uploaded. Wonderful voice, exceptional acting... Wow!
Amazing aria, amazing voice
Incredibile...voce pulita e accesa.
il si bemolle è roba per poche.
Virginia Zeani, Angela Gheorghiu's idol, can now be heard in her Covent Garden debut as Violetta. Totally unrehearsed it is a thrilling, dangerous and unmissable performance.
I don't know much about opera, but this was absolutely lovely! she's amazing!!
Me encanta como interpreta esta aria ;)
Gheorghiu is definately my favourite Violetta!
It's called BEING A DIVA which this amazing lady is more than entitled to call herself ;¬)
very nice singing! She is a great romanian singer!!
But she is beautiful! No one could be that lovely. And I do like her voice. In fact, she has a wonderful voice. Nohting at all unpleasant about her singing.
She has a wonderful voice
She is beautiful!

She is the best!!
wow, I actually didn't like Gheorghiu a great deal, until now. Her acting is really amazing here; the creamy thick quality of her voice is also incredible. Unlike a lot of singers that sing this, I actually think she makes this song sound happy, filled with maddening excitement.
in my opinion: THE BEST VIOLETTA !!!!
hey all! Bet you didn't know she was Romanian! Yep they'r good. Do it better than anyone. At every thing. Romanians are good at absolutly everything they set their minds to. She was born in Adjud, Romania and graduated from Bucharest Music Academy in 1990. "Desteapta-te Romane!"

Estoy de acuerdo con alguno de los comentarios aqu expuestos, es verdad que Angela Gheorgiu no es lo suficientemente delicada y sútil para cantar algunos roles que lo requieren, o en alunad arias y no siempre utilizando toda la fuerza de la voz sin piedad, pero Angela Gheorghiu es una gran voz de timbre y color extraordinario.
