This was beautiful and important. I wish the singers could have had a bit better range so there would be more freedom of expression between them. Felt like they were straining to get some notes.
I was totally here for it, up until those terrible runs around the climax. Otherwise, beautiful performance.
no
Meh. This was supposed to be amazing. But it was just meh.
the devil is a liar.
Jon your entitled to your wrong opinion
Somehow I agree with you. Mainly because of their pitch towards the end
