I wish the people who leave negative or sarcastic comments would have the courage to share their own renditions of this aria with the world. Since when is music about perfection? If you want perfection, please use auto tune. I want honesty and humanity.
TOTALLY AGREE. This is so incredibly hard.
Who's asking for perfection?
Wow. Absolutely beautiful. What a magnificent star. ❤
Her tone is one of the best I've ever heard of this aria.
WOW, she’s extraordinary! Her range, her vocal control, and her tempo are amazing!
Your face transforms when you sing the aria! Bravo!!!
I love MOZART!!!
Brava! Probably the best I have heard and the commentary was exceptional. Thank you!
Amazing! I also like to listen to her singing Mozart's Alleluia from Exsultate Jubilate.
I'd like to hear her try that too.
Wow, what a voice! Amazing that control ❤ 🎉🎉🎉
Brava Diva!!!!
When the human voice becomes a musical instrument!!!
Magnífico
thank you
Can you break glass
Am I crazy or are the first bars at home, is the intonation off?
not crazy i think the staccato/coloratura bits were a bit out too? Unless I'm crazy
A bit!
OK, very nice. Now sing "O Zittre Nicht"... and without the microphones & the amps.
Try to remain calm and enjoy listening to this young, talented and enthusiastic professional
@@peterburns6226 You're correct: she is young, talented and enthusiastic. And as I said, she sang a very nice "Der Hölle Rache". One just gets weary of being beaten over the head with "nice" promo videos and posts of young hopeful singers showing off high notes in flashy soundbite arias. I suggested she sing the other Königin aria because it's more technically challenging and musically interesting, and requires real technical skill at singing fioritura. Who knows, perhaps she can sing that aria too.
@@grantyoungblood7895 Are you a coloratura soprano opera singer?
@@laerwen Nope... a baritone.
Are you trying to be mean or are you simply ignorant? In this venue for over 5000 people, all the stage is amplified even the Steinway grand concert piano...
You should study German diction and PRONUNCIATION before exposing yourself in a video.
Can you demonstrate perfect German diction and PRONUNCIATION for us, then? Are you eager to expose yourself to other people's criticism?
@@laerwen Who's asking for perfection?
I dare you to do it better
@@RubysDude LOL Not being a soprano, it's not something I would sing. On the other hand, she probably wouldn't sing Rigoletto or Athanaël.
