In Response To: A VOICE OF ICE, AN OPERA THAT'S A CLONE OF FINER OPERAS (oliverhaddo)
: Nothing personal, friend hobie, but this lady has no passion,
: and the opera she's in is unoriginal--a copycat of greater
: works by men who set the standards.
(Ah. :) Oliver, you're talking about great examples of great opera. All I was doing was posting a song that I find pleasant, sung in a voice that I find pleasant. :)
As it happens, I've always respected Leontyne Price, but I don't like listening to her, at least not in an operatic role - she may have sung a different sort of song in a different setting that I found okay. I don't recall, at the moment.
I find that many vaunted and worthy operatic sopranos, Price included, have too much vibrato for my liking. I find it off-putting, even though I can understand how a well-controlled vibrato may be very suitable and effective in a performance hall setting.
I really like Libera, particularly from the 2005-and-onward era that included Tom, Josh, Ben, Liam, et al. My oldest friend, however - we were in Cub Scouts together :) - doesn't care for Libera at all. "Too ethereal," he says; "Not enough bass." :)
Is that indication of a flaw in Libera, or just that individuals are individual?
I had a friend who was one day offered a dessert his hostess had prepared specially for him. He took his first bite and thought, "Ugh - this is the worst lemon pie I've ever tasted!" Being a respectful guest, though, he took another bite, and then another, but he wasn't enjoying it at all.
After a bit his hostess asked, "How do you like the lemon cheesecake?" "Oh!" he thought; "not pie; cheesecake!" And he then could truthfully reply, "It's excellent!" and enjoy eating it. :)
Blessings.
