Sissel Sancta Maria mascagni cavalleria rusticana

[Learncountriescom]

So beutiful.

[nelliebell49]

To the person who suggested introducing opera to their children by using Sissel's beautiful voice-they would gain so much. My son did by learning the violin and I am so glad! nelliebell 49

[sakpixam]

Precioso video. Muy entendido el concepto de la espiritualidad entre la música y las imágenes del video. Una forma de acercarnos a la escencia de nuestro íntimo ser

rose0rose, My comments below were for a Reply to TabOra Sunset.

I do know This is "Sancta Maria/Cavalleria

Rusticana" - Italian Intermezzo by Muscagni, & Beautiful rendition by Sissel.

Correction of typo - name of Norwegian folksong: " Eg Veit I Himmerik Ei Borg" -

Horner, U.S. composer heard Sissel Kyrkjebo sing it & said "That's the Voice!"

This song became the catalyst for his soundtrack, & Sissel, the singer. See: 'Titanic Overture' video.

Sissel seems to be a well-kept secret, because you sure don't hear of her in the United States. She sings like an angel. I love her music.

[pennymusicMAma]

REPLY for TabOraSunset, Oh yes, the U.S. loves Sissel. I was mesmerized by

her voice when she sang at the Lillehammer,Norway Olympics in 1994, the same year her 1st music CD was released in U.S.'Innerst i Sjellen'. And James Horner chose her to sing the

Soundtrack - Vocalises & Descants), in

'Titanic', the movie. He was inspired by her singing of "Eg Veit e Himmerik ei Bord". I recently was at Sissel's concert

@ Pantages Theatre in Minneapolis, MN.

Sissel is internationally adored!

I loved the music I loved her voice. Imagine when I was young we had nothig like this. Young people your'e so lucky

[nula07]

Not sure what you mean. This is from Cavalleria Rusticana , tune's been around since 1890. How old are you? A gazillion recordings and background performances in film and TV out there. Look it up. I love this melody, even without the vocals.

[nidaros1112]

I think studakota probably meant Youtube and the Internet was not around back then... and that you could easily see, listen and explore all kinds of entertainment...

[floram280]

This is the most beautiful voice I`ve ever heard and the best version of sancta maria. I wish I could sing like that. It`s quite a tough piece to sing, and the last top note is so high! I wonder is that a high C ?

[godlovesyou333]

No, it's actually an A

[zzzooooo]

Do you possess absolute pitch?

[godlovesyou333]

yes

[pennymusicMAma]

REPLY for zzzooooo, Yes it is high A.

And I also have perfect pitch, a musician.

rose0rose, Sissel's voice is pure Enchantment. Thank you

[Petlito]

You can listen Shubert Ave Maria by Sissel on IMEEM. Beautiful!

[pidrufile]

This is great. Parents out there should use Sissel to introduce their children to opera.

She also sang the Schubert version of Ave Maria. It was angelic. If someone has it, please post.

[mufc1970ok]

@pidrufile shes not even trying , a natural talent , its just beautiful,
