That's how a music professor decsribed this in college - from the Mozart opera The Magic Flute. Using a whistle voice and reaching F6, this ain't for amateurs. Here, Diana Damrau performs exquisitely. Treacherous indeed. Don't try this at home, kids.

Scary!!
I prefer "glitter and be gay" from Candide
Beautiful!
CB - of course you do. ;)
I've seen her in Strauss (The Egyptian Helen), a Rossini comedi (Barber of Seville) and a Rossini sex farce (Count Ory) at the MET. She's a sensational actress and within roles for her vocal type, I don't think anything she can't do. And she always seems to be having the time of her life whatever she does.
Mozart was a mad genius! One of my very favorites.
I loves me some treacherous art! I could do that (if I was her).
