Luiz Gazzola had the privilege of interviewing in London Danielle de Niese exclusively for Opera Lively. [Opera Lively interview # 40] She is friendly and enthusiastic, and so vivacious! It is a pity that the interview has to be published in writing, since it cannot render the singer’s lively intonation and emphatic phrasing. Talking to her was a genuine pleasure. We have edited out some of the colloquial language, but not all, to reproduce the flavor of this friendly talk. Read on below this delightful interview, after our customary blurb about the artist's facts, biography, and discography. In addition to Almaviva, another Opera Lively journalist, MAuer, contributed with questions.
