Edita was such a consummate artist. You see and feel how passionate and dedicated she was about opera, truly a queen of coloratura. May she forever rest in piece :)
Come on folks, stop this comparing everywhere on youtoube! Is this really neccesary to compare the best with the greatest and the most famous, and critize the best of the best? Makes no scence to me. Stop this and just listen to the music. I mean its okay to compare a little bit for his own, and like one more than the other, but here this hobby seems to be maniac by a lot of listeners. If you like others more its fine. You can express it in a more gentle way than harshly critizising the greatest singers of our time. Lets try it with..also listen to this or that..or theres a lot more ways to make it in a respectfull manner. Respect is the key!
Je suis d'accord avec ce que tu écris. La critique, il en faut, doit être constructive. C'est une très grande artiste qui aura chanté jusqu'à + de 70 ans. Et ici elle respecte parfaitement la ligne de chant belcantiste et elle est très brillante dans les coloraturs sans oublier le high E naturel.
This. I think it's ABSURD. And I say that as an opera singer and new mu. singer. We do not need to tear others down or fight with opinions..just enjoy the beauty of all of the greatest. We are given music to heal and transform, not to tear others apart...that's not what music is for. Music is the solution to the judgement in the world through vibration. Let it be...and just enjoy. Thank you for this comment.
Adoro "críticos de ópera" e de cantores! Não cantam nada, não estudam nada, e vivem para comparar está e aquela "técnica". Falar o que de um vídeo como este, de um cantor como a Gruberova? Nada, apenas respeitar MUITO. Pois quem é cantor mesmo sabe como é. Esses "críticos" só entristecem o meio musical. O mundo seria melhor sem vcs!
Concordo os críticos não passam de pessoas ignorantes que se acham donas do conhecimento e da verdade absoluta não influem nem contribuem pra nada no brilhantismo do músico sou cantor lírico e leio cada coisa horrenda que falam mais cabe a nós ignoramos eles só isso porque sabemos o peso de nosso esforço pra aprender técnicas novas pra educar cada vez mais nossa respiração e buscamos acima de tudo transmitir o sentimento e nossa alegria através da obra que executamos .
Supreme performance edita !!! You certainly have an abondance of those expensive high notes at your disposal, what a gift - no other singer can do that. BRAVA!!!
Es espectacular!!!! Nada de falsetes, notas dadas en forma franca y seguras!!!! Por algo hasta la orquesta queda impresionada!!! Y los fuegos artificiales son espectaculares!!!
Una de las sopranos mas importante del siglo. Edita hace gala de bravura en esta aria sumamente dificil enorme presentacion. agilidades unicas, sobre agudos brillantes . fiato enorme.... una fuera de serie
Quel ...langui...sospeso mette tutte le interpreti...in fila alle sue spalle...una visione così precisa dimostra di essere una Musicista che Trova in Bellini il suo autore ...nel quale sembra giocare anche un ruolo di novità nelle variazioni. Insomma inventa uno stile che le viene da un repertorio affrontato da far paura-Reverenza... signora Gruberova.
CI LAVORA PARECCHIO SULLA SRITTURA ORIGINALE CON LA COMPLICITA DEL DIRETTORE E ORCHESTRA. RISULTATO?MAGNIFICO E MASSIMO COIMVOLGIMENTO! BRAVA, BRAVI TUTTI A PORTARE QUESTI RISULTATI!
In her early career before she started scooping all the time, Ms Gruberova was absolutely stunning in her technical abilities as well as her interpretation and this is an EXCELLENT example of what she could do before she tired her voice out. Bravissima!
You know Archie, I think it is because as humans we are desperately trying to show that we clever, artistic and, at the end of the day, worthy of acceptance. Edita Gruberova was the Bel Canto soprano of my formative years and I will always be in awe of her artistry. I once heard a wonderful singer say that it is our personal mannerisms that make us individual - Ms Gruberova's mannerisms were very pronounced, but ultimately they teach us to revel in our individuality.
she is absolutely great and belongs to the greatest. but there are lot of other great coloratura sopranos. there is no one soprano ore the onliest soprano. we have so a lot of great singers. hear them all
I often get frightened when I listen to Gruberova. Sometimes she sounds a little bit prisoned by opera demands in her late period, and she can't reach some high notes properly. But this aria is perfectly sung by her. I'm pleasantly surprised. Brava!
A beautiful job! It's earlier, so there aren't all the scoopy attacks on high notes (that are flat for half the note.) But it's not Devia, who is supreme.
I don't know, heard her about 10 times till 65... She was never flat, never... Don't mind these videos... Live you cannot imagine how she sang and how the voice was big... But people will never understand...
TOTALMENTE FUER A DE ESTILO, el estilo del belcanto es SUTHERLAND,CABALLE ,CALLAS,GENCER,etsa señora canta esto como si estaria canytando zerbinetta, DONDE SE VIERON ESOS PORTAMBENTOS EN EL BELCANTO?
Joan Sutherland at various stages in her career was better than this because she had a bigger voice and could handle the lower notes better. Still, this is a very very good version and it's sung very beautifully and with wonderful high notes.
Gruberova didn't have a small voice though. And she sang with expression. Sutherland was just a singing machine: big voice, great technique, boring as hell.
Joan Sutherland!!!! canta esta aria, dificilísima con una mejor respiración. La Gruberoba es una extraordinaria cantante, pero en esta aria prefiero a la Sutherland.
No chance! Sutherland is much more precise and relaxed, this performance slides all over the place, lacking Sutherland’s fluid precision. Lovely even tone throughout redeems it, however it does not match Sutherland or Anderson overall.
Too much scooping and self-indulgent singing from someone capable of much better. Like many of her performances, this too morphs into the Lucia mad scene more often than it recalls ancient Babylon.
Grubi's voice becomes very small when she sings coloratura. She uses her flute voice instead of her full voice. I wonder if she can be heard if she had to sing with a large orchestra within a large hall. I admit she has a pretty sound. Semiramide demands at least a spinto soprano. That, she's not.
theodore braden Well, it exists too (f. e. Gencer was that kind). Gruberova is not of that kind, altough her stage presence is/was huuuge. But stage presence (acting) has nothing to do with the voice (singing) and its dramatism ... She was able to sing some notes in dramatic style (f. e. her Devereux), but the voice stays liric.
She had really exciting tops and I loved listening to her when she broke onto the scene back in the 80s, but her agility is really sloppy and there Sills and Sutherland WAY outsing her.
I'm not buying what she's selling. For a while, I thought she was lipsyncing to the most common recording Dame Joan did of this (the tempo is even the same). For a while she was pushing it and I was considering buying it, then she fell apart with a minute to go and failed miserably at the end. ALAS.
Edita was such a consummate artist. You see and feel how passionate and dedicated she was about opera, truly a queen of coloratura. May she forever rest in piece :)
The best rendition of this aria!
I have to agree
Such a beautiful lady and what artistry!

her tone is so consistent, its really amazing.
Ce spectacle ne peut pas être plus parfait!
I agree we can love more than one singer! I have always loved Gruberova's what I call 'bubbly' runs. She can hold her own! Even at this age.
Edita Gruberova no doubt that when she was young she had one of the best voices in the opera world magnifcent
On recording, her voice often sounds vinegary, but heard live, it was far much beautiful.
אני רואה שיש גם ישראלים שאוהבים אופרה! פעם ראשונה שמצאתי מישהו כמוני.
Bravissima!, Frau Gruberova!
Amazing agility. Absolutely love it!!!
Edita ruleeezzzz ))))

É um m prazer ouvir Edita Gruberova. Até o músico ao fundo sorri admirando-a. Beautiful miss Gruberova!
Wonderful! She interprets Rossini in a great way !
Her brain decides...and her voice obeys.
TOTALLY PERFECT, FANTASTIC COLORATURA. LEFT ME BREATHLESS. THANKS A LOT LaViolettaValery FOR POSTING THIS VIDEO.

bloody marvellous!
Will always love you Edita!

This isn’t her early career, this is 25 years after her debut in Opera.
Exactamente está cantando 25 años después de haber iniciado su carrera profesional . Hizo una larga vida operística el doble doble de la Callas.
La Mejor y con diferencia!!! Vocalmente insuperable!!!
perfect!!!
Phenomenal..
Wow!! This is what I am striving to reach!! Beauty all around!
BRAVA
Ich sie so sehr und lerne nach ihr mine Stimme
That had very impressive moments....but it seems like she was all over the place....but, I give her credit! Nice looking woman too
Unlike your bleached mat which cannot even be described as all over the place.
Grand!
gruberova & damrau are the best!!
Bravoooooo
"Quite a technician." Metropolitan Soprano Gail Robinson confided in me once years ago. I agreed.
How on earth does this video have 39 thumbs down?
I know...she is so good...
It is not really all that good but it does not deserve "thumbs down" vote - it is a really difficult aria.
archie I know people are weird...
Haters. They cannot do it themselves. Who are THEY to judge?
You know Archie, I think it is because as humans we are desperately trying to show that we clever, artistic and, at the end of the day, worthy of acceptance.

she is absolutely great and belongs to the
greatest. but there are lot of other great coloratura sopranos.
there is no one soprano ore the onliest soprano.
we have so a lot of great singers.
hear them all
Astrale.
excellent control of her trills, great coloratura, and quite original. In my opinion, the best Bellraggio.
Guauuuuuu!!!!
GIOIA!!!
geezie kreezie! The girl's rockin on the Rossini.
I often get frightened when I listen to Gruberova. Sometimes she sounds a little bit prisoned by opera demands in her late period, and she can't reach some high notes properly. But this aria is perfectly sung by her. I'm pleasantly surprised.
Brava!
love EG!!
ASTOUNDING note at end!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Favolosa e basta
She fools areound a little at the end... :) GREAT!!!
Is that two gowns or one gown she is wearing? The top is beautiful.
I think it's one gown! At 1:27 when she moves her waist up and the upper body with the vocal line the skirt moves as well.
nice jewelery
5:54 sacré muscle crico-thyroïdien !
No comment!!! :-)
Con tantas variaciones tan desagradables estropean la belleza del aria.
Signor gruberov edito, lei di che roba si è fatto esattamente? Per dire ciò che ha detto della Devia e della Sutherland intendo. ahauhauhahauhah!!!!
la stessa cosa di cui si è fatta la Gruberova per cantare decentemente in questo video!
+SoulDeceased
gruberova gia indegna capra nel 93....figuriamoci
ahauauauhahauh!!
This from a woman who sounds like a rusty nail.
Magnífica Gruberova!!! Pasa que con las coloraturas el exceso a veces cansa, no obstante es impresionante su dominio.
a mi para nada me aburre las coloraturas, porque e ahi el gran detalle de su extensión vocal, como se expande es DIVINO, HERMOSISIMO, amo gruberova
Sutherland, Bartoli as well -_-
je fais pareil sous ma douche !
Esta*
more scoops per second than Speedy Gonzales but the final note was fantastic.
Not one scoop anywhere in this entire aria. How ridiculous.
imho she lacks chest voice, but overall this is awesome
@brolobear
Devia sounds are better and she doesn't do all the breathing in between.
A beautiful job! It's earlier, so there aren't all the scoopy attacks on high notes (that are flat for half the note.) But it's not Devia, who is supreme.
I don't know, heard her about 10 times till 65... She was never flat, never... Don't mind these videos... Live you cannot imagine how she sang and how the voice was big... But people will never understand...

Very nice rendition. Even if I think that June Anderson is the best on this aria
Las variaciones son horribles, pese a su extraordinaria voz.
You must be joking.
someone said to me recently she looks like a singing owl lol :-)
someone once commented that she looks like a singing owl ;-) lol
brava june anderson

Yes, the problem is the brain decides stupid things :D

Have you ever seen her life?

OMG, you shoud hear her life ... Very strong and powerfull voice ... hit HUUUGE stage presence ...
+MisterSoprano dramatic coloratura?
