Natalie Dessay - Italian Opera Arias

[rajdeep101]

I know you people admire this kind music... I do too, it helps me fall asleep.

[c0c0asauce]

No instrument can bring out emotions quite like the voice. Impossible to duplicate, and may it never be.

[JorPove]

Una cantante en toda la extensión del termino ,nada dejado al azar y con compromiso hasta el fondo...una muestra de buen arte. Gracias a EMI.

[killerbunny123123]

@Bloodofthejew Also, this is how she expresses herself when singing "to feel the music through her" as she has said in her interviews. I know it can seem annoying but as long as she only does that when recording....well, its a strictly vocal performance, not an acted one! So she has the right to do whatever she wans in the studio! Even dance flamengo!! haha.

[nellenozuka92]

@Bloodofthejew

Sometimes singers have to do things like that to remind theirselves where the next note is or just to remind themselvels to keep supporting the notes coming out of their mouths . Other times they are just keeping time. Trust me, there is a method to the madness. :)

[MrSkylark1]

Listen to LUISA TETRAZZINI, MADO ROBIN, MILIZA KORJUS, ADA SARI, MELITTA HEIM, for freedom of delivery without the physical manifestations

[nicolkidmanlover5201]

What is the second song that starts on 10:18... what is the song?

[aloeffel11]

@nicolkidmanlover5201

10:18 Ah! fors' e lui (La traviata)

[nicolkidmanlover5201]

@aloeffel11 omg thank you so much! :) I was going nuts!

[nicolkidmanlover5201]

What is the second song that starts on 6:18?

[killerbunny123123]

@nicolkidmanlover5201 at 6:18 "nella pace del mesto riposo" from Donizetti's Maria Stuarda (well, in opera, the title of arias is the first line of the lyrics, so you can find it like that :P ).

[MrHbc3]

I love this CD and listen to it frequently, but I keep on coming back and back to this rehearsal/recording you tube video.

[silvabdel]

i love operra <3

[nodross7777]

WOW! Her perfect execution of 8:25-8:56 is just amazing! Love the Italian.

[nodross7777]

WOW! Her perfect execution of 8:25-8:56 is just amazing> Love the Italian.

[emfiggy]

BEAUTIFUL!

[CharlesHenriEdouard]

She has one of the most beautiful opera voices ever!

[Phillkool007]

Fantastic voice............

[swissberries]

oh my gosh...

[7inga7]

A great artist, but not my favoite.

[mayreecanary]

What a joy to watch and an even greater joy to listen to. She is so gifted. I am in awe.

[Cakalene]

A beautiful window cleaner with a beautiful, beautiful voice; an absolute joy to listen to.

[mauriciomille]

what a milf is she hehe

[grommett90]

If someone would be so kind as to post a few good Italian opera songs names that would be greatly appreciated. I have recently started to listen to it and I will admit it is an amazing aural experience.

[bobbytmathew]

this music, well actually singing is awesome. italian opera is one of my favorite genres. if anyone can hit me up with some good tracks i'ld appreciate it.

[fagUrrific]

I love it;)))))))))))))) méticuleuse, les pêches et crème

细致，桃子和奶油!!!!

[qwertylife29]

@fagUrrific

ahha, wow.

really, u cant write english, french AND chinese.

[fagUrrific]

@qwertylife29;)))))) Mais non, sweetie,  为什么不呢??

[lilyballerina]

Actually, the movement of the arm helps you "visualize" the way the note is moving. Choir directors do it all the time to get their singers go think about doing something like going "up and over the note". It helps!

Anyway, it's not like she performs like this. It's for studio purposes so she's comfortable, and sounds as good as she can possibly be.

[classicalgal14]

She has such a rich speaking voice I guess its because she is French!

[kingofqwerty]

@classicalgal14 It's probably because she has practiced her voice so much. Skilled singers usually develop very powerful/rich speaking voices.

[NedeianuR]

just beautiful !

[vburm]

Such a joy to listen to. Brava!!

[bodiloto]

tutto appoggia sulla gola,il suono esce brutto , e,i,u,o tutti questi vocali negli acuti si transformano nel vocale A...anche la sua mano non la aiuta... non mi piace affatto.

[galehout]

@bodiloto please: sulla gola "STRETTA", e la differenza fra le vocali non si sente per questo motivo. No comment su quella mano

[sangeles2526]

MaRAVILLOSA COMO SIEMPRE!!!!

[mywaywest]

Csillogó,tiszta hangját imádattal hallgatom!

Natalie Dessay,Köszönöm!!!!!

[Operasingerxo]

What song is this called, please let me know.

[michiganpitbull]

i'm loving the emeralds in here ears, and oh yeah wish i could sing like this how amazing and beautiful

[Banderson1953]

She was trained as a ballet dancer, which might explain some of her arm and hand movement. Also, she has sung under the direction of Emmanuelle Haim, who advocates such movement. Like it or not, it is her style and it seems to work.

[paranormal87]

beatiful vioce !

this is cult !

[JulaGem]

Could someone give the names of all the arias she sings in order, please, especially the two at the beginning?

[rosalie013]

what an amazing talent! such a beautiful voice. the arm flailing makes it more interesting. as if her voice didn't already have it interesting.

[kecheen1]

As if singing like her is easy. We have this idea that people are born with great voices. What she does is from years and years and years of hard hard work. Let her flail her arms.

[CatalinaDM56]

She does this weird thing with her mouth when she breathes...just watch...it sort of makes a GRR face.

[FoxMasque]

she really does have a splendid voice and it is a very VERY powerful gift she bears... but I cannot watch the video, only listen.. I watch it and I become irritated with her flailing arms ._.; it is BEYOND distracting... her passion is true but she really needs to not move so much >>

[NemanjaFan]

Sans doute le plus improbable récital belcantiste de toute l'histoire du disque, à ranger directement aux côtés de l'indicible Studer Rosina et Gheorghiu Elvira ... Exemple frappant d'une voix égarée où elle ne devrait jamais être . Totalement dépassée par une musique à laquelle elle ne comprend rien. Un italien d'une platitude superbe, théâtre inexistant. Nat n'y croit pas un seul instant, elle fuira rapidement les concerts promos apres deux dates catas à Paris et Londres. Triste.

[wtfbroilylol]

shes really amazing its so pretty...but her fwayling her arms distracts me lol

[TheRedEnchanter]

agreed, gave me thoughts of a fish out of water XD

[WanderingGnome]

Beautiful!

[lfernan85]

such a powerful and yet soft and smooth voice. Unforgettable!

[mattrc2]

true true

[GAkopyan31]

As a musician and pianist, I must say...her meticulous attention to nuances is impeccable. It's pure joy hearing her powerful yet ethereal voice permeate the atmosphere. Pure nirvana!

[rpmccleary]

@GAkopyan31 yeah... well i listen to SLAYER

[Chaosphere100]

@rpmccleary Right on dude!! LMAO. slayer rules!

[imnotallen]

@GAkopyan31 shut up



[Izolditta]

Nice, but I think her Sempre Libera is not among my favourite.

[acostler]

I'm speechless. Fantastic only begins to describe her talent.

[solstice50]

Fantastic voice. Lets enjoy the various artists in their strengths and weaknesses, the perfectionists are usually in the audience.....

[trebleclefme]

i saw her on the met live and she was AMAZING! love from canada!!!!!!

[uranoinpesci]

The best!!!!

[awntherawks]

WOW

[nothingwithoutu07]

her voice leaves me speechless.

[raigekimaru]

her motions are weird, but other than that, I just don't see how a voice like this can have so many haters.

[GVH69]

Hate this voice? Surely not! The voice is sheer perfection. The movements are for her in the recording studio. Not unusual for artists to do this sort of thing . This video is a delight.

[arsenal4everNever]

this lady,can she sing or what?
