    Saw her entire run with Michael Fabiano at the Met recently. Her interpretation of Tosca was STUNNING each night. Must be considered a leading Tosca of our day.

    Ah. I love her angelic soft tones. And she can hold them forever. It seems like they disappear into her and then resonate quietly from deep within her. Ventriloquist's miracle.

      Tosca was a little bit too big for her. Also Butterfly. Not to say she shouldn’t have tried them, but people have said how great it was…. but not totally.

  • @ArgerichStan
    @ArgerichStan Před rokem +5

    She is capable….but i cannot but help think this type of role is not what flatters her voice the best. She is very good at the queen and such, but there is something missing from her tosca vocally…a pathos in the middle and low voice….a power that comes from a true lyric soprano….again she is good and i am pleased at the lack of wobble we so often hear nowadays but the met should give her better roles for her voice!!!

    • @jamesmayhew4069
      @jamesmayhew4069 Před 7 měsíci

      Tend to agree. She is a good singer, with a good technique, I like her… but the timbre of her voice is fairly ordinary. It’s not a characterful voice. I don’t close my eyes and think “oh, that’s Kurzak”… it could be pretty much anyone.

      She is not blowing her horn to the fullest. Is that your critique?
      "Terrible" is such a poor word to describe someone, someone's skills. I am sure you could have done better...

    This was a rather nice rendition by Aleksandra Kurzak. However, Gina Cigna, Maria Caniglia, Zinka Milanov, Birgit Nilsson, Renata Tebaldi, Maria Callas, and Leonie Rysanek own, win, and triumph not only in "Vissi d'Arte" but also in the entire darn role of Floria Tosca both dramatically and vocally.
