Let me get this straight... Lovely voice, capable of soft lyrical tones, can be heard above orchestra at loudest point... With clear open vowels, nice chest voice, and stunning high notes. All without nasality. Why is this woman not headlining all the main opera houses?
Also, the Burgundy is a fantastic color choice!
Her wiki seems to show she's doing pretty well as of 2021. Opera in general isn't faring well due to the, IMHO, too extreme restrictions imposed by the government on public events, such as live opera.
Burgundy, with gold embroidery,hard to beat,✌️
Maybe because opera is so trashed the quality of the singing is of no importance. It’s all about some jumped up producer’s “concept” that’s promoted not artistry of the highest standard that we are hearing here with the incredible Latonia Moore.
She is headlining. Thankfully
As a singer myself i can answer that question very easily. How many black women do you see in main stream aria's from various opera's...? I'd be willing too bet not many. Yeah it's a damn, damn, shame. Because she deserves EVERY bit of what her white counterparts are getting.
Oh God almighty. How could I've missed this talented soprano God bless her
The best and most friendly soprano I’ve ever had the pleasure to work with. She’s a goddess.
Good heavens she is absolutely sublime. What a beautiful voice. Such perfect diction. I am in tears. I wish for her a fabulous and great career on the operatic stage and all the big opera houses. With that fantastic voice she deserves nothing but the best. BRAVA!!!!!❤❤❤
My goodness she’s such a stunning singer!!! Those soaring high notes and that fresh brightness so so beautiful
My goodness she sings this aria the best
She's singing Madame Butterfly this season in Dallas. I like how her voice is smooth and supported without a harsh edge.
Oh my goodness! What magnificence! Couldn't fault that performance.
I'm so glad she's from this era. There's so much to look forward to!

I was at the Met a few yrs. back when she made her unscheduled debut as Aida for an indisposed Violetta Urmana. What I heard was as great an Aida as I've ever seen and that includes Price, Arroyo and Tebaldi.Hope to see her Butterfly in March.

How lovely, and she is singing with her own voice. A young artist who sound is youthful and very Importantly original.....freshest sound I've heard in a long time.

Lol who elses voice would she be singing with? In any case, this is not an opera singer. This is a musical theater singer.
@@ssr6036why you say that??
She is amazing! Aria slayed
Amazing.
Beautiful
so beautiful voice!
I saw her in Aida at San Diego Opera this past April. Wonderful singer. A beautiful voice with an instantly recognizable sound. She could be heard clearly in the big ensembles.
She is one big Mama and a voice to match. Love her xx
It's the first time I'm hearing her, I'm in total awe. My goodness, where was she hiding!?!
Meravigliosa.Sublime!!Una interpretazione indimenticabile,da brivido.Senz'altro una delle più grandi Butterfly di sempre.Come mai non è diventata una star assoluta in tutti i grandi teatri d'opera?
Credo anche io
Wow! What a beautiful voice. So clean, warm,?light and present over the orchestra. Beautiful rendition too. The whole package.
My God she was born to sing! She touches people's soul! Brava God bless you!

Flawless singing, already an accomplished singer. God give this beautiful girl everything she needs! I hear whispers of Leontyne everywhere. Such careful, truthful singing like Latonia's is truly a rare, rare thing. BRAVA!
infrantasi so true
Nothing like Leontyne Price. Beautiful in her own way. A kind of shimmering, lyrical clarity.

I’m sure many people are tired of every Black soprano being referred to in some way with Leontyne Price. They are nothing alike, other than being sopranos.
Love you, Latonia, May you live long, prosper, and share your talent with us for many years to come!!
I’ve heard this woman sing up close and it’s amazing! Her voice can cut through steel!
Latonia is fabulous!
Brava, bravissima! She's out of this world!
Beautiful, Latonia!
OMG…I’ve never heard of her til now.
finally a connected sound!!!! Great
SUPERB!!!!!
Voice of a godess.
Wow!!! The fact that she was able to control her sound consistently with a more infantile quality for this character is already a big accomplishment... LOTS OF BLESSINGS my beautiful Queen!!! Keep the hard work and please don't overwork to your wonderful instrument and keep true to your instrument with freedom.
Incredible performance!
WOW
An actual today's voice!
Brava! The mezza voce in the beginning was priceless.
Brava!
She just finished a run as Cio Cio San with the San Diego Opera (April 2016). She was absolutely astounding. Her voice has gained even more color, and a deliciously plangent quality, in the years since this video was recorded. Such a unique, immediately identifiable voice is truly rare these days.

You can actually understand the lyrics! 👏🏼
Vocally stunning....but she also conveys butterflys innocence, naivite, and dramatics

She is wonderful, I am so glad she is going to be back at the Met next season, I'll certainly pick the performance with her to go too. Fantastic.
Sublime
Magnificent voice ---- another gift from God ----thanks for uploading

She isn't just acting, she IS Cio Cio-san!
No words to describe... wonderfull
Brava... Delicata.. Gentile... Bella voce... OK..!!!
SUBLIME BRAVA
She has listened to Tebaldi’s recordings, and Renata would be very happy with what she took away, chiefly the idiomatic use of portamento, all but unknown among today’s singers of Italian opera. I’m surprised her teacher allowed it.
BEAUTIFUL! BRAVA!
I live!!!
Oh wow...I am expecting big things from this girl! She knocked me off my chair!
Sweet Jesus 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Wonderful singer. Saw her in Sydney doing Elisabetta in Don Carlo. Magnificent. 😍

Wow!
Era da lungo tempo non si ascoltava un timbro così ...Luminoso....e un dominio dei fiati di grande scuola con una dizione Italiana di tutto rispetto....cosa che mette le cantanti moderne in un agone culturale; dove queste professioniste approfondiscono... .il Senso di quello che dicono dando Pathos al personaggio e al Melos che le accompagna.
Difetto che molte grandi del secolo scorso a volte affrontava no sul ghiaccio di una pronuncia...a volte rischiosa..sopratutto nei reictativi....ma questo per ogni Idioma credo ci voglia la giusta conoscenza fonetica...e oggi i mezzi a disposizione sono veramenti...tanti.Una bella sorpresa...speriamo vista la giovinezza ....faccia scelte oculate, e lungimirante...prenda ad esempio le sue colleghe di colore che hanno avuto carriere luminose e lunghissime.Levandosi a livello artistico vittorie a volte ...incredibili e storiche.

Oh my god.... people who say that singers are not as good as they used to be need only watch this video. This is as good as any of the greats. This woman is truly a special voice and artist. I feel like I just won a prize for clicking on this video.

Non sei la Callas ne la Tebaldi ,ma hai tanto sangue in quella voce,complimenti!
Domanda per i più informati di me :ma come mai non la si trova nei migliori teatri del mondo?
Are you aware o the greatess of what you heard? She's among the very best of today's sopranos and needs a new manager.
Not a name I knew so I almost gave it a miss. I would have missed something very beautiful, accomplished and musical if not yet quite in the Callas class for dramatic conviction. But these are early days.

Ottima pronuncia dell'italiano
I thought Marian Anderson was the best black opera singer at singing Un Bel Di. Move over Marian, you've been beaten!
Le falta potenciar sus bajos..👏
Nice voice but the music is so bad! Or maybe the sounds is bad lol
There's nothing wrong with the music - perhaps its your ears
L’effetto asmatico alla fine di quasi ogni frase lo trovo un po’ fastidioso…
L’orchestra pesante …
