Nathalie Dessay "Tornami a vagheggiar" Handel

[LobsngDmchoi]

Liked the ornamentation until she went into those very conventional sounding arpeggio figures. But this does seem to be a live performance, so give her credit for some wonderful singing. and a high F I believe...

[Samarachelle]

@LobsngDmchoi It was an E actually. :)

[PiroozAzDirooz]

Dessay is a classical pussy cat with a fine-tuned laser weapon called voice. Keep purring Angel.

[tassiearn]

A genius singing music by a genius.What else can one say?

[ohmusic25]

I feel in love with this piece the first time i heard. Truly beautiful. I love the movement of the piece

[MelWolff]

This is like a lullaby...........i sway every time i listen to her!

[emma41093]

[emma41093]

Cadenza is not written!! lol

[rosovavoda]

[AVALONFANINVA]

this is the only song I like by her so far

[ceciliafan1]

love that high note!

[regularjoeback]

It's Natalie.. not Nathalie...

[musicyh]

Actually her original name was Nathalie Dessaix. She dropped the H and changed Dessaix to Dessay to make it easier for non-French people. Nathalie is the French spelling of Natalie.

[silvija73]

natalie is the best! i love her voice

[doremicde]

At today yes, but the best is Maria Callas

[KseniaMorda]

so inaccurate! This aire is tortured when sang by her!

[doremicde]

I don't agree, i think you are JUST A BIT invidious

[ishhf]

lo unico que no me agrada de Dassay es que se inventa notas solo por ostentar lo buena que es su voz... me parece que eso está de mas...

NO ES NECASARIO...

[nicevidbro]

queda genial.

[primohomme]

Si la musica no requiriera bravura y ostentaciones de voz, el compositor hubiera escrito una linea vocal mucho mas simple.

[ishhf]

lo entiendo primohomme :D a lo que me refiero es que a mi (personalmente) me parece que está de mas, ya sabemos que tiene una voz extraordiranaria, es una opinion ... apesar de que no soy un purista... :)

[paoloamadini]

la dessay ha una vocalita stuenda e puo far tutto

[manrico29]

D´accordo, ed anche è una attrice stupenda !!!

[ritchiereech]

...very different from other Alcinas I've heard... it was refreshing...

[naters81]

Actually she isn't Alcina. This is one of Morgana's arias from the opera. Fleming sang the title role in this production.

[manrico29]

Sublime donna!!! What a voice, what perfect coloratura!

Natalie, I love you...

[giorgioot]

beh che dire????

la Dessay non adatta al barocco??

non diciamo fesserie!!! vogliamo ancora ascoltare le scamorze che cantano spoggiato ? o che non avendo voce hanno falsamente ripiegato sulbarocco facendoci credere per anni che solo loro erano filologicamente adatte?

bene la dessay è assolutamente perfetta una musicalità non comune capacità espressive notevolissime e una voce che ha capacità strumentali e poi non dimentichiamoci che in teatro si deve sentire anche chi fa barocco!!!!

[Lohengrin]

one of the greatest samples of modern ornament writing for coloratura soprano, so well written i cannot separate them from score, incredibly musical and breathtakingly sung by Dessay at her -long gone- vocal prime.

Ornaments that have nothing to do with the usual ones we hear from coloratura soprani

[primohomme]

@Lohengrin

And the wrote them herself O_O

[brightboy86]

beautiful, as everything she sings! Brava Dessay!

[aurele65]

Natalie qui est une chanteuse que j'apprécie beaucoup chante avec brio cet air mais n'est pas le personnage. De toute manière, elle n'est pas faite pour le répertoire baroque.

[atripofdentist]

[lovesGenet]

Natalie has a big boomig not a thin voice to sing this material and such gorgeous hi notes.what a fantastic hard worker!!!

[fimetic]

WOW, what a voice! Go Natalie babe, go!

[incredibleLydia]

Bravissima

[armycasa]

Splendid aria, splenid music, spledid singer. Natahlie Dessay certainly one of the best soprano. Thkls for this music

[firebreathone]

It's natalie, not natHalie

[pierrotparis]

eso es la mejor interpretacion de este canto que puede ser....y al fin lo publico no se equivoca....

[DessayBestSinger]

Natalie not Nathalie Dessay

[operalover9001]

her original name was nathalie, no?

[DessayBestSinger]

yes, it was Nathalie Dessaix, but she took the h off for Natalie Portman

[jetmadchic]

It was Natalie Wood not Portman

[DessayBestSinger]

oh yes! sorry! I made a huge mistake! yes! it's Natalie Wood!

[DessayBestSinger]

Natalie Wood!!

[leoperarm]

OMG!!! XDDDDDDDDD

[DessayBestSinger]

ya sé xD

[maxazi]

braaaaavaaaaaa!!!!!!

[neohelade]

Manu-CHILE: No tiene el timbre ni la colatura más adecuada para esta aria más alegre de Alcina.

[manutortosa]

En realidad tiene coloratura y timbre para cantar lo que le de la gana, pero tienes razón, la música barroca no es lo suyo.

[pertrujo07]

QUIEN ES ELLA ? QUE ESTA CANTANDO?

[havenaria]

¡Cállate, pendejo!

[koloratura]

she's perfect!

[x4812k]

BRAVA!!! She is simply wonderful.
