Anna Netrebko Day....

This beautiful Russian lady sings a very romantic  aria with one of the great baritones of his generation,

Dmitri Hvorostovsky       "E allor perche, di', tu m'hai stregato"  from Pagliacci

(The same aria done live by Teresa Stratas.... never pass up a chance to showcase this gorgeous soprano!)

Anna Netrebko having fun Placido Domingo and Rolando Villazon  in another (oh my gosh!, not opera!...yes, Opera!)  Franz Lehar's beautiful   Dein ist mein ganzes Herz  from The Land of Smiles
BTW, note that 110,000 people spread out over 2 football stadiums enjoying these spectacular  sounds...but alas, its Europe, not America that this is taking place.

Let's leave with Anna and Rolando singing  another gem from  the Berlin 2006 Concert.
O soave fanciulla - Anna Netrebko - Rolando Villazon

Everyone loves Puccini's O Mio Babbino Caro and so does Anna and the 120,000 people listening!
