Maravilhoso
Maravilloso grupo de cantantes, actrices y bailarinas!!!! Viva el west sidel!
Her tour jete needs work.
Outstanding
Phenomenal performance! Extraordinary and beautiful!
You have my attention, bravo!
I want candies! Fun.
This feels like the Good Christian Boy opposite of Isaac Powell's version.
A wonderful voice. I’ve only heard this aria once or twice, but she brings life to it. No doubt she’ll be a fine Isolde!
The conductor RACES through the first half of this duet as if he were desperate to take a bathroom break!
BRAVISSIMO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BELÍSSIMO ESPETÁCULO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
She seems such a nice person! I just wish she was my friend 😂😂
Thank You So Much
You los me with the hero worship of Dieskau. Your opinion, and not a very good one at that
Fantástico
FAB!!!!
❤
His voice sounds amazing
Fun Fact: Cavin Cornwall is the Original Peter from 2000 Film but would later switch roles as Caiaphas in 2013 to 2019
Interpretazione ECCEZIONALE!!!
That is a brilliant creative production.
I only know Ryan from youtube. This is the first I've heard him sing. Sounds great!
Saw this exact opera with mom. Matthew's sister was sitting next to us in the balcony. Ahhh!!
Mon favorite de tout de bizet.
He hit the high note which is saying something and there is a raw intensity to his performance which is in character for Tony. But the definitive performance for me is Louis Maskell as Tony.
well done!
Wow... Unbelievable..
Too much portamento for Verdi. But great voice..Bravo.
Nothing can compare to the original
Sing for Ukraine! Don't forget them, right now they need it badly!
¡Qué linda interpretación! Bravissimo...
Bravo!
Great singers
What a wonderful conversation. Illuminating and poignant. Very sad at his death. Glad to have heard his thoughts on opera and his life in music. Excellent interviewer.
The video is a wonderful tribute to Sir Andrew and his time at Lyric. RIP to a great conductor and music legend.
Why sre they using s Mike?? Its opera
Sir Andrew will be sorely missed. He was one of the greatest conductors in the world.
people who wish he was tony in the movie 👇
How can some people not like this? I don’t get it. Bravissima Ms Perez.
Sublime duo !!!
Gorgeous performance! Thankyou.
west side story is amazing
❤RIP❤
What a beautiful Anthem <3 - I don´t understand a word but I feel the emotion and power behind the words. May I ask a question that has nothing to do with the war? I´m Swedish and as Swede I understand both Norwegian and Danish since our languages are very similar. Is it the same with Ukrainian and Russian and Belarus etc. Can you understand each other?
what a suprise! a third *black* opera!!! After Porgy and Bess, Treemonisha this piece, performed in 2022. Thanks a lot for posting
