So, the amazing-legendary and fabulous Dame Kiri te Kanawa has caused some stir in the opera world by saying that "Opera singers need a bit of beef" in order to preform well. I want to know your opinions !!!!!

This is funny !

Living in NYC has its perks , especially for classical singers... we have the Metropolitan Opera around the corner. So, I as a New Yorker attend at least one opera a week at the Met (through student tickets of course !) But, Never have I Ever experienced anything like this at the Met. The Aida production is larger than life. Words cannot explain how in awe i was when the set of the second act came out. The parade in the second act was AMAZING. There were horses, carriages, many dancers and much more. I definitely want to see it again. Not only was the set OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!! but Stephanie Blythe - as always was AMAZING. Her voice is so warm and heavy and huge. When i say its huge i mean..... its HUGE. She sang over the entire orchestra, the HUMUNGOUS chorus, the Soprano, Baritone, the Tenor and all we heard was her... AMAZING for anyone especially a mezzo to be heard. Marcelo Alvarez ... who is not one of my favorite tenors... until this day. He was absolutely amazing, his high notes floated in the theatre and his acting was impeccable. Lori Ghilbeau ( who i know personally and went to my school MSM) had an off stage role but i must say that she sounded AMAZING. I wish she would have been AIDA because Violetta Urmana did not do a good job being AIda or singing Aida. She was pitchy and at times her notes felt strenuous. But, other than that i cant even fathom the amazingness of this production and i cant wait to see it again. I know this set has been around for a while and i hope it stays around for many more years to come!
