Pure, articulate...
Hi Rosalind. Sure sounds like a vocal workout but you do a really fine job of it. Really like the section from 1.20 or so. I really enjoyed listening to this. Pure, articulate and technically excellent. Thanks, Peter.

Thanks
Yes, from 1:20 is actually the "tune"! Recitative can be a bit tedious and often is excluded from commercial backing tracks, however I think this one is quite dramatic.

Enjoyable listen and very impressive vocal performance. I don't know the first thing about opera, but I can tell it takes an accomplished singer to get through this piece. You did it wonderfully. Again, very impressive!

Lovely Performance
I've not heard opera performed here before, and this is a welcome addition! You really have excellent vocal control, and I'd come to see and hear an opera performance by you any time.

Oh my Goodness
What a beautiful voice and performance ! Do you speak Italian, or did you just learned the words for the performance ? Like it is said here, it's impressive !

Italian...
...sadly I don't speak it, but I think it a beautiful language and would love to learn it. Generally I just try to learn the pronunciation for each Italian song I sing, and when I was having proper lessons all the belle canto exercises were in Italian. These days I expect my pronunication has slipped somewhat, so apologies to any native Italian listeners!

PS
I just wonder how it would sound if you happened to work with someone like christopherpsly (on mj) or Silky5 (also on mj). They do great orchestral music, I'm imagining with a voice like yours, it would result in fantastic pieces.

Oh Rosalind!
I just love the agility of your voice! It might be a hard piece to sing, but you make it flow so beautifully. Very well done and so enjoyable!

Thank you
How about you trying some more opera?! It's been a while since I've seen you around here, let's get these Opera stats higher! :-)

Unlucky in love?
I don't speak Italian, but a minimal amount of googling tells me that's what it seems to be about.

(That same googling also gives me this: http://www.operapulse.com/explore-opera/features/aria-of-the-week/smanie-implacabili-cosi-van-tutte-mozart/)

Anyway, lots of drama in your performance. Great job.

Thanks for that link - it was interesting to see how differently the aria was interpreted and sung. I think on stage you can get far more passion into it. What I dislike about singing against recorded music tracks is the inability to change the dynamic and shape the song to your choice, you just have to follow the tempo as set :-(

Always a marvelous treat
I am never disappointed when I hear any opera work you record, Rosalind. And I am glad to read your honest comment (above) that this is "very hard to sing." You make it sound like it is easy and quite natural, but anyone who's studied even a little bit of opera, knows that this stuff is impossible for us mere mortals. You are so blessed with a gorgeous and fluent voice, and fortunate, too, to have found the Karaoke Opera accompaniments which allow you to have a wonderful orchestra to accompany you. Just delightful. I am so glad to hear this wonderful music and singing tonight.

The dramatic opening is very well sung - clear, bright and full of expression. You manage the operatic leaps in the melody with ease - it may be hard to sing but your voice is beautifully smooth throughout. Lovely!

Wonderful
Your voice is quite beautiful on this piece.

Thank you for the download :)

cosi, a fan of the cutie...
Mozart did like to push his singers... we saw this 5+ years ago at the San Diego Opera, and I was taken with the number of difficult arias stuffed into one opera, as well as the intriguing and Shakespearian/byzantine plot. Very well sung, as always... you seem to glide through this effortlessly (though I imagine you looked like the photo above afterward, whew!) You do have a wonderful voice, thank you for sharing these gems with us!

ttfn,
Drakonis

now that is Talent!!!
I'm form a different way of life style however it was the first that I've sit and listen and I do not know what you are saying only I hear the melody and I must say that is very impressive because you really have to do those voice exercise to sing that way so I do see you have a love for your art and I welcome that.very different for me however I learn something today

Thanks
Thanks Kai! I agree that it's not always necessary to know what's being sung of, it's enough to let the song wash over you. I've been to operas where I have a gist of the story but I don't worry about understanding every song, I just sit and enjoy it for what it is. Thanks for being brave and listening to a new genre! :-)

wow!
opera is not something you normally hear on MacJams so this is a real change from techno and rock. I don't know anything about opera, but this sounded great to my untrained ears. Very clear phrasing and real drama.

I've not really
developed a taste for opera. However, I do know that only the best singers can attempt the vocals required. Well done.

Wow!
Like others here, Opera is not my genre of choice but in small doses like this, it can be stunning. A beautiful listen and I think you handled all the vocal pyrotechnics very well.

Your display of vocal control and emotion is truly wonderful. Moreover there is a richness to your voice that makes the phrases really shine. I can't imagine the amount of practicing that would go into producing a recording like you have given us. Many thanks for the gift!
