- Acclaimed soloist Pretty Yende’s breathtaking performance at the coronation of King Charles III brought her voice to the attention of the world. Yende, whose journey to opera stardom began in a small South African town, talks to Imran Garda about what it means to be a black woman in a genre that is traditionally considered white and elitist.

THE best moment of the coronation for us xxx also the best outfit and best jewels, the yellow was so perfect, golden
When I heard Pretty Yendes voice it took me to another place, what a beautiful person she is ❤
As a Suth African who knows the corner of the country she comes from I am overwhelmed with pride and joy.
I love her voice! I can hear the great Jessye Norman in her 🙂
' Opera is for all humanity ' ❤ She is a humble person and realizes she has an amazing gift. That she shares it with us is wonderful! 💗🙏🎶 I get chills when i hear her sing Sacred Fire. I ❤ the words of the song too.
Hi Pretty girl. We are very proud of you back Home in South Africa 💃💃❤️
I am so pleased that I clicked on one of your videos and discovered you. Beautiful voice! You made me think of Maria Callas. I will be listening to you now on Sundays. Congratulations!
A year later, this fabulous singer is still thriving. Check her Lakhme with Nadine Sierra.
She's indeed Pretty from the inside and Beautiful to the eyes that gaze upon her.
Can't wait to see her singing live at the London Royal Opera House singing in Rigoletto. I'm a very proud South African what a privilege to be able to hear her sing. ❤
Well done ❤
The longer I listen to the interview and Petty's replies... I am so proud of her. She is a prime example of the REAL peoples of South Africa who are wonderfully friendly by nature. South Africans are NOT racist in their hearts, not like in USA , UK or Canada.. it is the SA gov who created the laws and not the citizens.
I went to school near Piet Retief .. Standerston. The ANC has badicall reduced it and Puettetief to rubble.. there is zero infrastructure to even the rosds are crumpling back into dirt roads. Its shocking.
Pretty is a lovely person as well fabulous classical singer.
So modest. Lovely person.
Such grace in the face of such a nasty interview. Pretty Yende is a truly remarkable woman.
"Nasty interview" ?!?!? Were you and I watching the same programme????? What a load of rubbish - it was a wonderfully affirming interview!
She's an arrtist but what if she would have be anybody?
I'm not proud of my country at all.
I was complaining at how American police welcome foreing people sometimes.
But now must realise that my country is not better at all.
And i fear this could even be worse in the future with those many extremists and racists people.
And let's not forget about the corruption & evil of SA government also. Sadly they have done nothing to help our black citizens become educated in basic schooling as well as how to improve their lives. Or, how to become part of a 21st century world. I guess ANC keeps them living in the past, to keep the poor and build hatred for any European life styles. It's easy to control people when you keep them uneducated and in poverty.
The presence of BlacaMoors in ancient Europe explains the history of classical arts incepency. Stradivarius , Guanari etc
, does not exist withput the BlacaMoor, consider Bheethoven, Mozart Alexander Pushkin. The truth is Outhere
To be frank. Opera is a "white" Culture. All of the classical peras (and also classical) Music have been written more or less by white people. If "you" want to make a race-problem out if it, then it is your approach. I also think, (as Pretty Yende) that this is a gift to all humanity. If you don´t like it, you can live without it.
I have been at the Vienna State Opera yesterday. (Walküre ... Richard Wagner ..., so more the heavy stuff ... and a plot,. where a German God (Wotan) has the major role. Guess, who performed the role of Wotan? Eric Owens ... a person of colour. Did he get good rewards? Yes.
So ... Pretty Yende may have had problems in Paris. This is sad. But we also have problems with illigal immigration and crime. So ... what is the conclusion? That we are all racist? I don´t think so.
