The Beautiful Voice sang last night at the 18th International Music Festival of Český Krumlov.
In the Brewery Gardens of the Český Krumlov Castle, Renée Fleming -in a Vivienne Westwood gown - revisited after many many years the role of Armida and her trademark aria "D' amore al dolce impero" - role she will sing at the MET in 2010-, sang her famous Rusalka, amazed once again with her Desdemona, showed her witty side with "I could have danced all night", sang two folk songs (The water is wide & Shenandoah) and said goodbye with Strauss' Cäcilie and Schicchi's Lauretta.
As Renée herself revealed during a post-performance interview, she will be back in the Czech Republic on November 14 2009, to sing at the commemoration of The Velvet Revolution, invited by Václav Havel.
