Oh! How Fabulous!! I would soooo sing it this way! With Lady Gaga writing some more trills and maybe a chorus!….
g-l-o-r-i-o-u-s!!! wam would love it (and dance he could!)
I’m surprised Julie Taymor didn’t throw this into her Lion King Magic Flute.
Awesome! So wrong and yet so right!!!
hell-arious! Her technique was quite something.
There must be plenty of conductors who wish that real opera singers had that kind of sense of rhythm. Caramba!
Well, it’s nice to hear a singer do the Hempel high notes. Once you hear those you want them every time. Here’s Frieda Hempel on YouTube:

Renee — eat your heart out (and dance all night)!
Well, it conveys some real emotion (she sounds quite irked at times). And it’s a hell of a lot better sung than the last performance I heard in the house…
