then there is cecilia...always... always flooring all other singers doing this genre...she is perfection...its actually astounding at times and very unbelievable.
Meraviglioso, stupendo, Cecilia ha uno strumento al posto delle corde vocali, dolce e nello stesso tempo forte e chiaro, la voce ha una limpidezza che sembra un soprano no mezzo. Grazie
no lungi da me, non sono così cattivo da pensare una cosa simile, era solo inteso che normalmente le prime donne sono i soprani, che se la tirano un po', come i tenori d'altra parte, invece quando si trova una voce simile da mezzo soprano è veramente una cosa divina.
For long, I thought Baroque music cannot be enjoyed for long. I listened to her in Budapest last May, and ever since I think she is one of the most talented an virtous singers of our times. And she has a personality as well. I do not know how she is capable, but here notes always hit the right spot...no matter its a vibrato or longer held notes...Fantastic, thanks to God for giving her to us!
Cecilia ha sido un descubrimiento reciente para mi, pero que ha entrado como un torbellino en mi vida. Sensacional, pasional, magnífica, exhultante, soberbia, escucharla en este aria sobrecoge el alma.
Perhaps you might be caught up in "the masters" syndrome or something, but I find the repertoire quite refreshing and the musicality very exciting!! Given that this type of music is a bit off the beaten path, I give Ms Bartoli the highest marks for extending herself to bring off this feat, for it is really a feast to listen to her passion and her love of the lore of her chosen craft. So play on, sing on and take me away again on the wings of your collective soul!!! I, for one, am there with you!
This is amazing. I've been Bartoli's fan since the 1980's, and I find her truly amazing, in spite of what many say. Her virtuosism is almost unmatched I would say and one thing is true, these arias only work if sung by true virtuosos, and in my humble opinion we don't have many of them nowadays, but anyway we are lucky to have some who are singing these baroque gems, Bartoli, Kermes, Genaux. Thanks for posting, I'm anxiously waiting for the Sacrificium CD I've order...
We are indeedlucky to share the planet in the epoch to find her here also ..She makes a great deal of music that is only mediocre better .She is so vitally alive everything she touches is enlivened! Hasse,Porpora and all the formulaic baroque operas as wellas the truly lasting ones are as lucky as we .
Questo è uno dei brani meglio riusciti di tutto il disco; lo sto ascoltando in questi giorni ed è davvero eccellente. Poi si sa: la Bartoli o la si ama o la detesta, comunque non lascia indifferenti. Forse un filo eccessiva nella vocalizzazione sempre troppo carica di foga, ma le cadenze sono da brivido come sempre. E aggiungerei un "grandioso" all'orchestra!
Là, Mme Bartoli a fini de m'émouvoir. Pourtant c'était bien parti quand à 20 ans j'écoutais passionement son album des airs antiques, puis de Rossini, à 30 ans Vivaldi, magnifique. Comme a écrit Flaubert dans le dictionnaire des idées reçues. La musique : a quoi sert-elle puisqu'on peut la remplacer par la technique qui fais mieux et plus vite.

Este aria o es precisamente una experiencia placentera, pero es sin duda un "tour de force" espectacular. Sin embargo, no puedo dejar de alimentar una duda. ¿No ha sido ayudada por la tecnología y cierto "editing" en la grabación? Hay pasajes tan largos sin toma de aire que me cuesta creer que todo haya sido grabado tal cual. Me gustaría verla en directo cantando lo mismo, pero no creo que se me presente la oportunidad. A ver que nos cuentan los que puedan oirla en directo en este aria.

Quería decir, claro, que "NO es precisamente una experiencia placentera..."
For English speakers:
Not a very pleasing aria, but certainly a real "tour de force". But I have a doubt. Has she been helped somehow by fine "editing" in the recording session? She goes for so long in a single breath that seems quite impossible. I would love to hear her singing this live in one of her concerts to compare. : )
Je l'ai vue en concert à Martigny en Suisse le 1er septembre : elle n'a pas pu tricher et je peux dire que ses vocalises et la longueur du souffle sont incroyables.... Au-delà de la technique pure, elle est une artiste d'une incroyable sensibilité et donne tout à son public.
La verdad es que es muy difícil creer que una ser humana puede hacer las cosas que hace ell - pero después ver a ella cantando en directo - puedo decirle que esta grabacion es como ella lo canto. Ella es un fenomeno!
Fantasticaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!

Io credo che la voce di Cecilia Bartoli no ha la estencione di soprano e no ha la potenza di mezzosoprano pero ha coloratura molto bella e precisa.

spero questo non sia inteso a mettere il mezzosoprano in sencondo piano rispetto al soprano..sarebbe alquanto sconveniete.

beh meglio così allora^^ concordo.
da mezzosoprano posso dirti che questo razzismo, anche se spesso dovuto all'ignoranza in ambito, è un po' scocciante

Se nota que no sabes que Cecilia Bartoli lleva una vida estudiando a los castratos, que eran maestros en la administración del aire.
Pasado 1:30 Ella alcanza 12 compases con una sola toma de aire.
Farinelli alcanzaba 18 compases.
