I'm more concerned with the acting that stage director forced on this production, too vulgar for Rossini, her coloratura being a light lyric soprano is tolerable, and as Tosycyzkiewicy pointed out, Rossini didn't write an Eb6 in the score. Many well known soprano roles don't go over C6 in the score, some only go as far as B5, even when some soprani sing higher notes just because it's tradition to sing them (e.g., La Traviatta, Violetta's cabaletta at the end of Act I). It is also tradition that some roles are partially transposed up or down one tone or semitone to accomodate some voices when the needed singer is not available or the conductor wants them to produce vocal fireworks (e.g., transposing one tone up Amina's final cabaletta in Bellini's La Sonnambula to get an F6 instead of Eb6).
riquisima!!
Brava!!!!!
Fiorilla´s bunga bunga...lool
1:12 "il piacere d'ogni da"?
choppily, not a coloratura at all... where is eb6 which wrote the great composer?
Fiorilla doesn't have these ultra high notes. The role is written for standard soprano range, the highest note is C6.
