Fleming can be mannered in German as well; listen to her Madelin in the Capriccio. The voice is so beautiful that I want to yell at her to just sing sing and forget all that jazz crap and pop you have sung. I am hoping that the Capriccio from the Met will be an improvement over her earlier Paris Opera production.
Fleming can be (not always is) almost unbearably mannered in the Italian repertoire (which is what she gets stick for), but when singing Korngold, Strauss and to a degree Mozart, she is simply stunningly, stunningly beautiful. Her Korngold and Strauss especially are amazing. Beautiful. Perfect. Really outstanding.
She takes a lot of negative criticism for some reason, but I only hear how truly beautiful her voice is. I think Korngold would have tears of joy hearing how she caresses his music.
Glück, das mir verblieb, rück zu mir, mein treues Lieb. Abend sinkt im Hag bist mir Licht und Tag. Bange pochet Herz an Herz Hoffnung schwingt sich himmelwärts. Wie wahr, ein traurig Lied. Das Lied vom treuen Lieb, das sterben muss. Ich kenne das Lied. Ich hört es oft in jungen, in schöneren Tagen. Es hat noch eine Strophe - weiß ich sie noch?
Thrilling. Stunning.

Naht auch Sorge trüb,
rück zu mir, mein treues Lieb.
Neig dein blaß Gesicht
Sterben trennt uns nicht.
Mußt du einmal von mir gehn,
glaub, es gibt ein Auferstehn.
♥ Renée Fleming...

Mhm. Lately it sounds as though she were really tired. You sometimes get the feeling her chords don't want to close all the way...
