Every time she’s about to give advice I’m just thinking “please god Renée just sing it for us”
Omg! Me too.😂
Ms. Fleming is extraordinary. I have noticed that she tries to keep singers from over singing every note. Tell the story, put in the emotion and not every note has to be a power blast. Genius!
What the amazing Voice master class! Thanks a lot to Renee for her artist talent! And the student is very talented too! Thanks for posting this video!
This girl had lots of guts to sing this in front of the creator of the role. Nobody can really touch Renée in this ... great masterclass tough.
Glorious voice !!!
Renee Fleming is amazing as both an opera singer and a teacher. She proves that a good athlete can be a good coach. And Elizabeth Novella is so fabulous. Actually I hear this aria for the first time and I have already loved it very much. The best thing about this aria is they sing it in English!
Athlete ❓English- NO 🚫
What a stunning voice!
This young lady is just WONDERFUL....!
Lol. Renée’s face when Elizabeth gets the “damned for it” right :D
I Just SO Enjoy watching this. Renee’ seems so nice 😇
Me encanta cada vez que te oigo , Elisabeth
She was fantastic!
Incredible all around 🎉
La Fleming - adoro questa ragazza !
mi ricordo ancora la Sua Manon qua à Parigi !
era semplicemente divina !
I just stumbled on this Elizabeth. What a great experience! Beautiful, of course. So cool! BTW, it's Sarah Bucher from Opera Works 2011.
Lovely
and what a beautiful work by Andre Previn...!
This girl has a beautiful voice. I just looked her up. She's had some big successes/roles.
I asked this question before and I am asking it again: Why do Masterclass students never (at least I have never heard one) select Arias from Puccini, such as La Tosca, La Boheme, Madam Butterfly, or Verdi, etc. ?
Robert, thank you for your reply. I do not believe there is an opera singer in the world who would refer to Arias from these operas as "cliché". Perhaps you know that famous Aria with the 9 high C's. When Juan Diego's brilliant voice hits those notes, I would like to know who would think of this Aria as a cliché. Could it be that Arias such as this one which bring the house down, are much too demanding for a student ?
I'm no expert, but I think it has to do with the fact that singers in masterclasses are usually young, and it's not healthy for young singers to sing heavier or more dramatic repertoire. I think Puccini in particular is hard on young voices.
That was my first thought, though thinking of Richard Tauber, who was considered at his peak at 21. And now we have children who sing opera. There is also the Ukrainian 16-year old girl who sings Mein Herr Marquis which such perfection, even the orchestra smiles with delight and surprise, and the applause brings the roof down. And we have some Russian Sopranos in their early twenties with outstanding voices. And there is young Australian Tenor who sang Nessun Dorma at a Talent Show. The power of his voice, starting with the first note, made the judges gasp. His age 14 !!! I guess, we are dealing here with exceptions. After all, there was only one Albert Einstein .
I think the concern is that young singers will damage their voices in the long run, and won't have the long careers they might if they made smarter choices about repertoire. An opera singer is typically considered to be in his/her prime at around 40 years old, I gather. But "Mein Herr Marquis" is quite light, so I think that one makes more sense for a youngster. "Nessun dorma," not so much.
Well, it depends if the voice type. Those Arias you would like to listen to are normally for lirico-spinto sopranos or more dramatic voice types. Those voice types are at their height at around 35-40. the lighter voices are at their best at a you her age and coloraturas are very good at the beginning of their 20s.
So, it really depends on the voice type and your age which arias are good to sing. And another factor: the well known arias are hard to sing well at this age and it‘s better to work on not so well known repertoire especially when it will be published. Otherwise you would have to be soo outstanding in your interpretation that you need no masterclass anymore.
These masterclasses rarely accomplish anything other than bragging rights.
Fleming created this role and no one can ever sing it like her. Fleming made Blanche so human, but anyone else singing the role will just sing the notes and sound very artificial.
agreed - have to make it your own
You are so right!
WHY is she sing an aria from, Streetcar, which was a disaster of an Oper & Opera just sounds ungainly in English.😬
Beautiful voice.Don't understand a thing she says. Not an actress.
