Gluck: Orphee et Eurydice: J'ai perdu mon Eurydice

[SDCmorg]

@100Singers As a matter of fact I've heard all those... And I still like this. Liking this or not is nobody else's business but your own, but to go around saying that others who like what you don't can only do because of ignorance is presumptuous to the extreme. I don't question your taste. Leave mine alone.

Does she really think she is Orfeo? I wonder if anyone can take her squeezing wannabe masculine low notes for the image of ancient Orfeo looking for his beloved? LOL! She should better look for her repertoire.

[SDCmorg]

@spqrmor It doesn't matter if she thinks she's Orfeo or not. She convinces me and many others that she is... and that is her job.

At least the lady has a lot more class than people like you who revel in jeering at others who actually have the ability to do what she does. Perhaps if you would spend the time you use to post comments like this to improve your own ability instead, then your life will be happy enough to not give you this sort of psychological problem.

@SDCmorg I agree with spqrmor. It seems that YOU are unhappy and have psychological problems if you always attack people who disagree with you on your channel. Artists are supposed to be judged by ALL heir listeners and not only devoted fans. Don't worry I wouldn't be shy to tell her in person what I think about her UGLY singing, not only on YT! If she convinces you, she doesn't convince ME! Orfeo made rivers stop flowing with the BEAUTY of his music. Now rivers would stop in disbelief:"What?"

[SDCmorg]

@serenaluce I see that psychotic egoists like you two come in pair. What sort of person go around tastelessly dissing and making personal attacks on artists and then getting oh-so-outraged when others won't stand such childish abuse anyhow? Only emotional idiots like you can only dish it but haven't the gut nor the grace to take it when it comes back your way.

As they say, if you are going to whine and whine on about the heat, get out of my kitchen (repeated offenders you are. Blocked and boo)

[serenaluce]

@SDCmorg According to the myth rivers ceased to flow, beasts forgot their wildness, mountains moved from place to place to listen; all nature was charmed and animated when Orfeo played. Now they would be shocked listening to this bass-baritone female HORROR :"Did the myth lie?!" Orfeo produced high, heavenly, beautiful sounds! Is it her idea that to potray a man a female singer only has to force as lowest sounds as possible and with a deformed face?! A MANLY Amazon woman?! Listen e.g.to Callas!

[Garpinator]

Considering her vocal range, wouldn't "Che faro senza Euridice?" been more appropriate?

[SDCmorg]

@Garpinator I guess it's more convenient for her this way since she's only ever sung the part in the Berlioz French version of the opera. I don't think she has sung the Italian version of this aria since she recorded it on 'A Portrait' CD back in '97. :o)

[musicalidea]

The composition is so elegant and spare; it is almost more fitting to play it only on a piano, as if that is somehow closer to the fragility of the voice which mourns the death of Euridice than an orchestra, containing, like the voice, the implicit threat of silence or collapse.

[musicalidea]

Elicitation of the more pure passions of man. Elegiac. Beautiful.

[Kryltoppa]

My. The pianist sets such a slow tempo I wonder if anyone aside from Kasarova would still manage to hold my attention at this pace! Hat's off to her.

[Arashi110]

I love listening to her singing to the piano even more than in the operas.
