Aria Code: Pretty Yende on Il Barbiere di Siviglia
Season 3 of Aria Code, the Met’s podcast collaboration with WQXR, continues. Host Rhiannon Giddens welcomes soprano Pretty Yende to discuss Rossini’s Il Barbiere di Siviglia and the classic aria “Una voce poco fa,” in which the feisty heroine Rosina asserts her independence and declares that nothing will stand between her and the man she loves.
