Elizabeth Parcells "Vorrei spiegarvi, O Dio!" K418 Mozart

[UnaverageAmerican]

I can't really listen to anyone else sing this because she does it nearly perfectly in every way :)

[FabioCostaMusic]

Thanks so much for uploading Elizabeth Parcell's music. What a voice and musicality, artistry. Definitely one of major the voices of the 20th century.

[7inga7]

Voz maravilhosa, âmbito do imenso e tocante. Parabéns Elizabeth. Alexandre Vivacqua

[breechesman]

Beautifully sung. Indeed a marvellous voice.

But you should hear the new release of Lenneke Ruiten with the Concertgebouw Chamber Orchestra. A new star in the making.

[ALEXISVASSILIEV]

I WONDER WHY this Famous Michael Jackson, throw with his silver has left and has right cannot write a small check there to this Elizabeth who is OBVIOUSLY ONE incontestable genius ' VOCAL ART? what what it can develop it? Answer SVP me!!!!

[ALEXISVASSILIEV]

Divina! Mais OU VAS Le MONDE ? Ma QUESTION?

[SqueakyIri]

I'd love her technique, and I feel that Ms. Parcells (God rest her soul) demonstrates for us the technique of the old Bel Canto singers that were prevalent in the early 20th century, e.g. galli-Curci.

The main problem that I have witht eh opera singers of our current generation is that their vowels are a bit mushy. sometimes, they'll substitute an "uh" for an "eh".

Besides, the older schooled singers such as Parcells seem to have more flexibility and artistic imagination. imo

[greenstboy]

Very lovely, indeed. Wonderful technique and the perfect light singing that the piece calls for---delicate and heavenly. (Anyone know who this is?)

Sills is a little too harsh and forced. Wonderful lady but her singing never appeals to me.

[greenstboy]

I meant does anyone know who conducted this?

[ozzymandi]

This is magnificent,but forgive my ignorence which Mozart opera is it from?

[jamalakadea]

As far as I know, it's not. It's a concert aria.

[VirajaAscona]

It's not from an opera; it's a concert aria Mozart composed for Aloysia Weber who was 16 at the time and with whom he was in love; he later married her younger sister Constanze.

Stephanie Cowell (author of the novel "Marrying Mozart" from Penguin Books)

[VirajaAscona]

Correction: this is the one he composed for her when she was the very old age of 22...! He composed a different one for her when she was 16. Stephanie

[primohomme]

She must have been quite a singer! I mean, going from low Bb to high D!

[Heraopera]

I like the color of her voice for that piece..... Not bad... And her pitch is easy and a very good interpretation! Brava!

[arrassip31]

This not Mozart. Why she use bel canto coloraturas (5:57)? You must to the perfection: Maria Stader. I know the high E is difficult to reach, but she and Thomas Beecham produce an atmosphere without competitors.

[leoperarm]

Hear Edita Gruberova Doing it at my channel!!!!!!!!!!

[thetuscanman]

I am not too fond of the quality of the voice itself,which I find too brittle and poor in overtones. However she knows how to use it, and masters this very difficult aria pretty well.

[ursus1302]

she made it wonderful...but have you ever heard this arie sung by edita gruberova?!?! oh my god!!!

[bruceagogox]

Sumi Jo doesnt touch elizabeth parcells honey sorry lol.

[lamsauping]

I am deeply appreciative of your posting!

[europelove]

wow this is gorgeous

[bossmuscle]

beautifulMozart voice - pristine, refreshing. Very easy high range. However, the high E natural has too much "whistle" in it---sounded separated from the rest of the voice. The head voice has to mix with it so as to give it the needed blending. The high D's were more succesful at this. Overall, a beautiful sparkling performance. Brava!

[SecretsofLish]

Very good! Elisabeth Parcells is my dearest Mozart-singer (I hope this is properly English). She sings nearly perfect at the time 6:32 - 6:38; a very difficult part.

[weezroxb]

Sumi Jo does it better but this song is absolutely beautiful.

[g6c]

I tend to agree, and am partial to Sumi Jo's rendition also (although not a little for personal reasons). But this one is definitely superb as well.

[drdre333]

I agree with the others. So much caressing of the vocal line... just amazing.

[Andreaseye]

Absolutely gorgeous, sweet, version of this area.

[julianapstome]

the very best rendition of this heartfelt aria
