  • I love this! Heartbreakingly beautiful!

  • OMG!, no one like her to sing this aria!

  • Purcell - Dido & Aeneas Rotterdam Stadsschouwburg Dido: Xenia Meyer Aeneas: Maarten Kongingsberger Belinda: Irene Maessen Second woman: Machteld Baumans First magician: Annett Andreisen First witch: Vera Lansink Second witch: Caroline Erkelens Combattimento Consort Amsterdam Conducted by Jan Willem de Vriend
  • so perfect...

  • Does somebody know if this performance was brought out on CD or DVD. It is the most beautifull performance of Dido I ever heared. Got tears in my eyes while listening and looking.

  • depressing to some, but this is art, and this is fucking beautiful.

  • She's great and deserves to be best known. Hope for more of Meijer

  • C'est trés beau ,on ne s'en lasse pas !

    Elle est superbe cette femme et cette voix.

  • preciosa!!!!

  • Meravigliosa...

  • MARAVILLOSA!!!!!!!!!

  • Jessye norman is the best in this aria, but this singer doesn't do it bad

  • A beautiful rendition of this aria.

  • I hope I have as much energy in my dying arms as she does, that way I can make artistic movements with them and then stop as if on purpose.

    Great singing, though.

  • I wont forget you baby

  • ha ha ha

  • Wow..real phantastic..she is my favoriste,lovely m.soprano...:)

  • Wow..Phantastis..

    Really... from today she is my favoriste mezzo.soprano ~ :)

  • Definitely I love her........ the performance is completely beautiful.....

  • I enjoy this and your other clip of Xenia singing "Ah Belinda". Her voice is so warm and beautiful. I've looked for a copy of this showing on every dvd trading board, just so I can listen to more of her.  Thank You so much.

  • I have a "thing" for this aria and I must say that this version (and staging) is one of my favorites. Thank you so much!

  • this is so stunning...

  • wow....

  • This is quite the best rendition of Dido's Lament, that I have been fortunate enough to have seen and heard. The simple but effective staging is also worthy of praise.

  • Absolutely beautiful. But Janet Baker's has brought tears to my eyes on more than one occassion. Here in Jamaica where opera is listened to only on Sunday's its strange that I love Dido's Lament. I absolutely love to hear Dame Baker's.

  • I also appreciate Dame Janet Bakers rendition. Thank you for sharing your experience with me.

  • Cool! These subtitles are like Monty Python ik den Holye Grailen. Beautiful -- but seriously -- beautiful Dido's Lament!

  • QUE DIOSA XENIA!!!!!!!
