Ariadne auf Naxos: "Als ein Gott kam Jeder gegangen" (Erin Morley)

When the wealthiest man in the city double-books a group of buttoned-up opera singers and a band of bawdy comedians as dinner entertainment, the fun begins. Ariadne and her fellow singers have to share their drama (and the stage) with the saucy comedy troupe. This opera-within-an-opera, set on the Greek isle of Naxos, tickles your funny bone one minute and tugs at your heartstrings the next. Richard Strauss’ look at art, fidelity and love is at once divinely comic and achingly tender, enchanting audiences from the beginning to the last note.

The high E above high C while laying down is WILD!!!

Nothing is wild about it. To sing laying down is way easier because all tension is away. She does good job.

WHERE IS THE REST

[@Porn05Mouth]

Star. ⭐️ I’ve seen her in Vienna, New York, and now London, and she is a brilliant singer and actress. Insanely good technique… and she’s often paying it forward by releasing technique videos and such. She’s not only a great artist, but also a great human being.
