Album insights
In a sold-out venue, two of the most successful young opera singers, and close friends, Nadine Sierra and Pretty Yende, took the stage at the Paris Philharmonie on March 6, 2023. Breaking stereotypes of diva rivalries, the sopranos' voices beautifully complemented each other. Their performance featured a diverse program of arias and duets from Italian, French, and American repertoires, bridging opera tradition with a 20th-century flair. Directed by Giacomo Sagripanti, the digital album version includes additional live recordings, exuding cinematic charm, including their rendition of the timeless piece "Over the Rainbow" from the movie The Wizard of Oz.
